Muhammad was casting lustful glances at his own stepdaughter, Durrah bint Abi Salamah. The wife who mentioned this to Muhammad was not even the child’s own mother, so his interest in Durrah must have been generally noticed around the household. Durrah was a newborn (or, as some say, not even born) when Muhammad became her stepfather in 626, so she was a maximum of six years old when he died. Hence she was between two and six in the following ''hadiths''.

Possible Additions

Temporarily place interesting Qur'an, Hadith and Scholar quotes here until they can be added to appropriate sections:

It was narrated from Miqdam bin Ma'dikarib that the Messenger of Allah said: "The martyr has six things (in store) with Allah: He is forgiven from the first drop of his blood that is shed; he is shown his place in Paradise; he is spared the torment of the grave; he is kept safe from the Great Fright; he is adorned with a garment of faith; he is married to (wives) from among the wide-eyed houris; and he is permitted to intercede for seventy of his relatives." (Hasan)
Ibn Majah 4:24:16:2799

Ibn Ishaq p. 308 (concerning the battle of Badr):

Then the apostle went forward until when he came out of the pass of al-Safra' he halted on the sandhill between the pass and al-Naziya called Sayar at a tree there and divided the booty which God had granted to the Muslims equally. Then he marched until he reached Rauha' when the Muslims met him congratulating him and the Muslims on the victory God had given him. Salama b. Salama—so 'Asim b. 'Umar b. Qatada and Yazid b. Ruman told me—said, 'What are you congratulating us about? By God, we only met some bald old women like the sacrificial camels who are hobbled, and we slaughtered them!' The apostle smiled and said, 'But, nephew, those were the chiefs' (380). When the apostle was in al-Safra', al-Nadr was killed by 'Ali, as a learned Meccan told me. When he was in 'Irqu'l-Zabya 'Uqba was killed (381). He had been captured by 'Abdullah b. Salima, one of the B. al-'Ajlan. When the apostle ordered him to be killed 'Uqba said, 'But who will look after my children, O Muhammad?' 'Hell', he said, and 'Asim b. Thabit b. Abu'l-Aqlah al-Ansari killed him according to what Aim 'Ubayda b. Muhammad b. 'Ammar b. Yasir told me
Narrated Ibn 'Umar:During the lifetime of the Prophet we used to avoid chatting leisurely and freely with our wives lest some Divine inspiration might be revealed concerning us. But when the Prophet had died, we started chatting leisurely and freely (with them).
Narrated 'Ursa: The Prophet asked Abu Bakr for 'Aisha's hand in marriage. Abu Bakr said "But I am your brother." The Prophet said, "You are my brother in Allah's religion and His Book, but she (Aisha) is lawful for me to marry."

Muhammad was casting lustful glances at his own stepdaughter, Durrah bint Abi Salamah. The wife who mentioned this to Muhammad was not even the child’s own mother, so his interest in Durrah must have been generally noticed around the household. Durrah was a newborn (or, as some say, not even born) when Muhammad became her stepfather in 626, so she was a maximum of six years old when he died. Hence she was between two and six in the following hadiths.

Narrated Umm Habibah ... I said, “O Allah’s Apostle! By Allah, we have heard that you want to marry Durrah, the daughter of Abu Salamah.” He said, “You mean the daughter of [my wife] Umm Salamah?” I said, “Yes.” He said, “By Allah! Even if she were not my stepdaughter, she would not be lawful for me to marry, for she is my foster niece, for Thuwaybah has suckled me and Abu Salamah; so you should neither present your daughters, nor your sisters to me.”
Narrated Zaynab bint Salamah [sister of Durrah]. Umm Habibah said to Allah’s Apostle “We have heard that you want to marry Durrah bint Abi Salama.” Allah’s Apostle said, “Can she be married along with Umm Salamah [her mother]? Even if I have not married Umm Salamah, she would not be lawful for me to marry, for her father is my foster brother.” “And there is no blame on you if you make hint of betrothal or conceal it in your hearts. Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Forbearing.” (Q2:235)...
