Prophet's Wives

Juwayriyya bint al-Harith (c. 608-670 CE) was a wife of Prophet Muhammad whose marriage led to the liberation of her entire tribe, the Banu Mustaliq. Known for her beauty and profound devotion to dhikr, she is remembered as a great blessing to her people.

Maymuna bint al-Harith (c. 594-681 CE) was the last wife whom Prophet Muhammad married. Wed during the Umrah al-Qada in 629 CE, she was known for her piety, generosity, and family connections to the Hashemites. She lived the longest of the Prophet's wives.

Sawda bint Zam'a (c. 590-674 CE) was the second wife of Prophet Muhammad, married after the death of Khadijah. An early convert who migrated to Abyssinia, she managed the Prophet's household in Medina and was known for her generosity, humor, and devotion.

Umm Habiba / Ramla bint Abi Sufyan (c. 594-666 CE) was a wife of Prophet Muhammad and daughter of the Quraysh leader Abu Sufyan. She chose Islam over her powerful family, emigrated to Abyssinia, and married the Prophet by proxy through the Negus.

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.

Zaynab bint Khuzayma (d. 625 CE) was a wife of Prophet Muhammad known as 'Mother of the Poor' for her extraordinary generosity. She was married to the Prophet for only a few months before her death, making her the shortest-tenured Mother of the Believers.
