وَقَدْ خُطِبَتْ خَدِيجَةُ بِنْتُ خُوَيْلِدٍ وَبُذِلَ لَهَا الصَّدَاقُ مَا آجِلَهُ وَعَاجِلُهُ مِنْ مَالِي،
And Khadijah bint Khuwaylid was betrothed, and her dowry, both its deferred and its immediate parts, was paid from my wealth,
خُوَيْلِدِ — Khuwaylid. The father's name closing the 'daughter of...' pairing as its owner, so it takes the genitive 'of' ending that fuses the two words into a single name. The case here is set by the noun's slot in the lineage chain, not by the larger sentence.
