How to say “Khadijah” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
وَخَدِيْجَةُ يَوْمَئِذٍ بِنْتٌ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةٍ
Khadijah was then forty years old.
وَخَدِيْجَةُ — and Khadijah. The connector wa- ('and') fused to a woman's proper name. The wa- opens this new statement, and the name stands as the topic/subject whose age the rest of the sentence states, with no spoken 'was' needed.
From: The Prophet's Marriage to Khadijah →OpenArabic teaches words like خَدِيْجَةُ through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
