Vollständige Biografie

Zaynab bint Khuzayma was known even before Islam as the 'Mother of the Poor' for her extraordinary generosity and care for the needy. She was widowed when her husband Abd Allah ibn Jahsh was martyred at Uhud, after which the Prophet honoured her by marrying her. Sadly, she passed away only a few months after the marriage, making her one of the two wives the Prophet lost during his lifetime, but her title of Mother of the Poor endured as her eternal legacy.
