Halah bint Wahhab

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Halah bint Wahhab ibn Abdu Manaaf ibn Zuhrah (Arabic: هالة بنت وهاب بن زهرة‎) was one of Abd al-Muttalib ibn Hashim's wives and the mother of Hamza ibn Abd al-Muttalib. She was a first cousin to Aminah binte Wahb ‘Abdu Manaaf ibn Zuhrah, the mother of Islamic Prophet Muhammad. Thus Hamza was related to the prophet in several ways. He was a second cousin (on his mother's side) an uncle (on his father's side) and milk brother by breast feeding from Thuwaybah, the freed slave of Abi Lahab [1].
