Gabriel came to the Prophet and said, "O Allah's
Apostle! This is Khadija coming to you with a dish
having meat soup (or some food or drink). When she
reaches you, greet her on behalf of her Lord (i.e. Allah)
and on my behalf, and give her the glad tidings of
having a Qasab palace in Paradise wherein there will be
neither any noise nor any fatigue (trouble) . "

No. 3563 - Narrated 'Aisha:
I did not feel jealous of any of the wives of the
Prophet as much as I did of Khadija (although) she
died before he married me, for I often heard him
mentioning her, and Allah had told him to give her the
good tidings that she would have a palace of Qasab (i.e.
pipes of precious stones and pearls in Paradise), and
whenever he slaughtered a sheep, he would send her
women-friends a good share of it.
