Mariya Al-Qibtiyyah as one of the Mothers of the Believers


592

Q 6: Is Mariyah Al-Qibtiyyah who was given to the Prophet (peace be upon him) by Al-Muqawqis as (Part No. 18; Page No. 10) a gift and the mother of his son Ibrahim, considered one of the Prophet's wives and a mother of the believers?


A: Mariyah Al-Qibtiyyah who was given to the Prophet (peace be upon him) by Al-Muqawqis as a gift can neither be considered one of his wives nor a Mother of the Believers. She was a war captive whom his right hand possessed (i.e. Lawful to him without a marriage contract) and gave birth to his son Ibrahim, and as such she received the title "Umm Walad (mother of a child)." May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
