The Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم presented this marriage proposal to his (paternal) uncle, Abu Taalib, and other elders of his family. The whole family happily accepted the marriage proposal and the date for marriage was set. Holy Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم went to the house of Sayyidatuna Khadijah                 رَضِیَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَنْهَا along with Sayyiduna Hamzah رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ and other (paternal) uncles, other people of his family, noble men of Bani Haashim and leaders of Mudar [مُضَر] and performed the marriage. At the occasion of this marriage, Abu Taalib delivered an eloquent sermon. (Sharh-uz-Zurqaani, vol. 1, pp. 375 to 376)

The translation of this sermon is that “all praises are to the Lord (عَزَّوَجَلَّ) Who made us from the lineage of Sayyiduna Ibraheem (عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام) and among the progeny of Sayyiduna Isma’eel (عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام), and we were born in the family of Ma’ad and Mudar. He عَزَّوَجَلَّ made us custodian of his House (Ka’bah) and Haram. He عَزَّوَجَلَّ blessed us with the house of knowledge and wisdom and with the Haram of peace. Moreover, He عَزَّوَجَلَّ appointed us ruler over people. Muhammad Bin ‘Abdullah (صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم) is the son of my brother. He is such a man that if he is compared to any person from the Quraysh, he           will excel him in every domain. Though he has less wealth but wealth is a fading shadow and something that is temporary. My nephew Muhammad  (صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم) is such that you all are well aware of my closeness and affection to him. He marries Khadijah Bint Khuwaylad (رَضِیَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَنْهَا) and decides twenty camels from my wealth as her Mahr. Furthermore, his future is extremely bright, splendid and marvellous. (Sharh-uz-Zurqaani, vol. 1, pp. 376; Madarij-un-Nubuwwah, vol. 2, chap. 2, pp. 28)

After him, the paternal cousin of Sayyidatuna Khadijah, Waraqah Bin Nawfal, also stood up and delivered a great sermon. The summary of this sermon is that: Hamd (praise) is only for Lord Almighty Who created us. The way O Abu Taalib! You mentioned, He عَزَّوَجَلَّ has blessed us with all those blessings as mentioned by you. Undoubtedly, we are the leaders and chiefs of Arab, and you too are the possessor of all these qualities. No tribe can deny your excellences and no one can deny your dignity and grandeur. Moreover, undoubtedly, we have wholeheartedly and enthusiastically preferred to be meeting and being tied in relationship with you. Therefore, O Quraysh! Be witness that I give Khadijah Bint Khuwaylad in the marriage of Muhammad
