Umm Habibah bint Abi Sufyan

She came to be known as "Umm Habeebah" (the mother of Habeebah) because of her daughter, Habeebah. As the daughter of the Prophet's fierce enemy, Abu Sufyan bin Harb, she made many sacrifices for her faith and migrated to Abyssinia along with her husband, ‘Ubaydullah bin Jahsh. Ubaydullah later converted to Christianity and died, but Umm Habeebah remained steadfast in faith. When the Prophet (saw) sent his envoy, Amr bin Umayya Damri, to the king of Abyssinia, he also sent a proposal to the widowed Umm Habeebah. The king married her to the Prophet (saw), paying her 400 dinars in dowry, and sent her to the Prophet (saw) under the escort of Shurahbeel bin Hasnah. After the Prophet (saw) returned from Khaybar, he married Umm Habeebah in Safar or Rabi’ Al-Awwal, 7 A.H. She died either in 42 or 44 A.H.
