bukhari:3816Saʿīd b. ʿUfayr > al-Layth > Katab Ila Hishām from his father > ʿĀʾishah

I did not feel jealous of any of the wives of the Prophet ﷺ 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.  

البخاري:٣٨١٦حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عُفَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ قَالَ كَتَبَ إِلَىَّ هِشَامٌ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ قَالَتْ

مَا غِرْتُ عَلَى امْرَأَةٍ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ مَا غِرْتُ عَلَى خَدِيجَةَ هَلَكَتْ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَتَزَوَّجَنِي لِمَا كُنْتُ أَسْمَعُهُ يَذْكُرُهَا وَأَمَرَهُ اللَّهُ أَنْ يُبَشِّرَهَا بِبَيْتٍ مِنْ قَصَبٍ وَإِنْ كَانَ لَيَذْبَحُ الشَّاةَ فَيُهْدِي فِي خَلاَئِلِهَا مِنْهَا مَا يَسَعُهُنَّ

bukhari:6004ʿUbayd b. Ismāʿīl > Abū Usāmah > Hishām from his father > ʿĀʾishah

I never felt so jealous of any woman as I did of Khadija, though she had died three years before the Prophet married me, and that was because I heard him mentioning her too often, and because his Lord had ordered him to give her the glad tidings that she would have a palace in Paradise, made of Qasab and because he used to slaughter a sheep and distribute its meat among her friends.  

البخاري:٦٠٠٤حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ عَنْ هِشَامٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ قَالَتْ

مَا غِرْتُ عَلَى امْرَأَةٍ مَا غِرْتُ عَلَى خَدِيجَةَ وَلَقَدْ هَلَكَتْ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَتَزَوَّجَنِي بِثَلاَثِ سِنِينَ لِمَا كُنْتُ أَسْمَعُهُ يَذْكُرُهَا وَلَقَدْ أَمَرَهُ رَبُّهُ أَنْ يُبَشِّرَهَا بِبَيْتٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ مِنْ قَصَبٍ وَإِنْ كَانَ لَيَذْبَحُ الشَّاةَ ثُمَّ يُهْدِي فِي خُلَّتِهَا مِنْهَا  

muslim:2435aAbū Kurayb Muḥammad b. al-ʿAlāʾ > Abū Usāmah > Hishām from his father > ʿĀʾishah

Never did I feel jealous of any woman as I was jealous of Khadija. She had died three years before he (the Holy Prophet) married me. I often heard him praise her, and his lord, the Exalted and Glorious, had commanded him to give her the glad tidings of a palace of jewels in Paradise: and whenever he slaughtered a sheep he presented (its meat) to her female companions.

And indeed, her Lord commanded him to give her glad tidings of a house in Paradise made of reeds. And even though he slaughtered sheep, he would not forget to send gifts to Khadijah's friends with the meat."
