Biografía completa
Umm Haram bint Milhan was an Ansari woman closely related to the Prophet and one of the distinguished women of Medina. The Prophet would visit her home and rest there; on one such occasion he smiled in his sleep and told her of a vision showing her people from his nation crossing the sea in warfare like kings on thrones. She asked to be among them and he prayed she would be. She later accompanied the Muslim fleet to Cyprus in 28 AH and died there after falling from her mount, becoming the first Muslim woman to attain martyrdom at sea.
