Zainab, Umm al-Masakin Zainab was the daughter of Khuzaimah ibn
Abdullah. As she was very generous and charitable and fed the
poor and the needy with generosity, she came to be called Umm
al-Masakin.
She was first married to Abdullah ibn Jahsh who was martyred in
the Battle of Uhud. She was married to the Prophet in the same
year but died after a few months. She was the only wife of the
Prophet, after Khadijah, who died in his lifetime. The Prophet
offered her funeral prayer himself and buried her in the Jannat
al-Baqi'. She was thirty years old when she died.
