Detailed Account

Before their marriage, Muhammad ﷺ (age 25) led Khadijah's trade caravan to Syria, accompanied by her servant Maysarah. They witnessed miracles: 1) Two angels shaded Muhammad from the sun, 2) His merchandise sold at exceptional profits. This earned him the titles 'Al-Amin' (the trustworthy) and 'As-Sadiq' (the truthful).
