{{Quote|{{Tabari|9|p. 128}}| The Messenger of God did not marry another woman during the life of Khadijah until she passed away. When she died, the Messenger of God got married, but opinions differ as to whom he married first after Khadijah. Some say that it was 'A'ishah bt. Abi Bakr al-Siddiq, while others say that it was Sawdah bt. Zam'ah b. Qays b. 'Abd Shams b. 'Abd Wudd b. Nagr. '''As for 'A'ishah, when he married her she was very young and not yet ready for consummation''',(note:877) whereas Sawdah was already married before. | {{Quote|{{Tabari|9|p. 128}}| The Messenger of God did not marry another woman during the life of Khadijah until she passed away.
