Sayyidatina Zaynab bint Khuzayma al-Hilaliyya (passed away 4 A.H/625 C.E)
(she was called the "mother of the poor")
Zaynab bint Khuzayma, may Allah be pleased with her, was married to the
Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) in Ramadan, 4 AH,
soon after his marriage to Hafsa when he was fifty-six years old and
she was thirty years old. After she had been made a widow when her
husband was martyred at Badr, she offered herself in marriage to the
Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) who accepted her
proposal and married her. Zaynab bint Khuzayma was so generous to
orphans and the poor that she came to be known as the 'Mother of the
Poor'. She died only eight months after her marriage, may Allah be
pleased with her, and although not a great deal is known about her
today, there will be many who will testify to her generosity on the
Last Day.
