Hazrat Umm Habiba Ramlah bint Abu Sufyan (RA)





Introduction

Hazrat Umm Habiba (RA) was the daughter of Hazrat Abu Sufyan bin Harb bin Umayya Abd Shams from the Umayyad family. Hazrat Muawiya (RA) was her half-brother on her father’s side. Her real name was Ramlah. She was given the name Umm Habiba (mother of Habiba) because her daughter from her first marriage was called Habiba.



Early life

Hazrat Umm Habibah (RA) and her husband Ubaydullah ibn Jahsh were among the first people to accept Islam. They migrated to Abyssinia in order to escape the persecution and oppression of the polytheists. However, her husband abandoned Islam there. (It is recorded that he died or they divorced shortly afterwards.) When the Prophet (SAW) learned about what had happened to Umm Habiba, and how she had stood fast in her religion and endured oppression for its sake, He (SAW) sent a messenger to Abyssinia to tell her that he wanted to marry her. She gladly accepted the proposal, and Negus performed the marriage ceremony (with the wakalah (agency) given by the Prophet).

This event occurred in 6 A.H, and the marriage was regarded as a reward for Umm Habiba’s adherence to the religion. Moreover, this marriage went a long way to eliminating the hostility felt by Abu Sufyan towards the Prophet (SAW), and making him approach Islam in a more positive manner. In fact, Abu Sufyan converted to Islam during the conquest of Mecca.



She breathed her last

Hazrat  Umm Habiba, reporter of 65 hadiths from the Prophet, passed away at the age of 73 in 70 A.H.
