SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) praised the two women Khadeejah and Maryam bint Imran as the best women of their respective times.

It was narrated that 'Ali (رضي الله عنه) said: The Messenger of Allah said: "The best woman of her time was Khadeejah and the best woman of her time was Maryam bint Imran'. (رضي الله عنهما)
حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ خَيْرُ نِسَائِهَا خَدِيجَةُ وَخَيْرُ نِسَائِهَا مَرْيَمُ بِنْتُ عِمْرَانَ‏.‏
