The wives of the prophet are described as "أمهات المؤمنين" or "mothers of the believers." As such the prophetic example is considered instructive for all Muslim households. How the prophet interacted with his wives, and how they obeyed him, is a framework for how Muslim husbands and wives ought to interact, as well as how men should interact with their own female slaves. [[Aisha]], the prophet's favorite wife, has an especially loft position in the sacred history of Islam. She was last person the prophet interacted with before he died, and she also form the starting point for many important [[sahih]] narrations about his life in the [[hadith]]. As such her life is considered especially instructive for Muslim women and believers in general. | The wives of the prophet are described as "أمهات المؤمنين" or "mothers of the believers."
