Sirin (Islamic history)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sirin was an Egyptian Coptic Christian who became one of Muhammad's slaves. She and her sister Maria al-Qibtiyya were sent to Muhammad as gifts from the Byzantine official Muqawqis in 628.[1] Muhammad kept Maria as a wife or concubine and gave Sirin to his follower, the poet Hassan ibn Thabit. Hassan and Sirin had a son, 'Abd al-Rahman ibn Hassan.[2]
