Umamah bint Zainab

Umamah bint Abu al-'As bin al-Rabi' (Arabic: أمامة بنت ابو العاص بن الربيع) was a granddaughter of the Islamic prophet Muhammad and she is numbered among his companions.

She was the daughter of Abu al-As ibn al-Rabi' and of Muhammad's eldest daughter Zaynab.

When she was a small child, Muhammad used to carry her on his shoulder while he prayed. He used to put her down to prostrate and then pick her up again as he rose. Muhammad once promised to give an onyx necklace to "her whom I love best." His wives expected him to give it to Aisha, but he presented it to Umamah. On a different occasion, he gave her a gold ring that had arrived from the Emperor of Abyssinia.

Some time after Fatimah died in 632, Umamah married Ali. They had one son, Muhammad "the Middle".

Ali was killed in 661, and Muawiyah I proposed to Umamah. She consulted al-Mughira ibn Nawfal ibn al-Harith about this. He said that she should not marry "the son of the liver-eater" and offered to deal with the problem for her. When she agreed, he said, "I will marry you myself."

She died in 670 (50 AH).
