The companions رضي الله عنهم

Sumayyah رضي الله عنها bint Khayyāṭ رضي الله عنها

سمية بنت خياط

Mother of ʿAmmār رضي الله عنه ibn Yāsir رضي الله عنه, from the weakest households of Makkah with no clan to protect them.

Where they appear

  1. Going public — and the persecution

    Tortured with her husband Yāsir and her son; the Prophet ﷺ passed them and said, 'Patience, family of Yāsir — your appointment is the Garden.'

How it ended

Killed by Abū Jahl — the first martyr of Islam.
