Banu Asad

Khawla bint al-Azwar (d. 639 CE) was a Muslim woman warrior of the Banu Asad tribe who fought alongside her brother Dhiraar in the Rashidun conquest of the Levant, most famously at the Battle of Yarmouk in 636 CE, becoming one of the most celebrated women soldiers in Islamic history.

Zaynab bint Jahsh (c. 590-641 CE) was a wife of Prophet Muhammad and his cousin, the only wife whose marriage was contracted by direct Quranic revelation. Her union abolished the pre-Islamic prohibition on marrying the ex-wife of an adopted son.
