Prophethood in Makkah

c. 619 CEYear 10 of Prophethood

Khadijah dies — the Year of Grief

Khadijah dies, about two months after Abu Talib by the book’s main report (another report says three days). “She believed in me when none else did,” he would later say. With both his protector and his wife gone, the persecution grows, and he calls this the year of grief.

As the book dates it: Ramadan, 10th year of Prophethood (she was 65, he was 50)

She believed in me when none else did.

The Prophet ﷺ, p. 80
