Summary
A clan from which Ibn Ishaq names Tha'laba ibn Hatib and Wadi'a ibn Thabit. 1
In this batch
Ibn Ishaq traces Tha'laba ibn Hatib to "Banu Umayya ibn Zayd", and Wadi'a ibn Thabit to "Banu Umayya [ibn Zayd], kin of Abu Lubaba ibn Abd al-Mundhir". 1
Source notes and markers of doubt
- The addition "[ibn Zayd]" in Wadi'a's lineage comes from manuscript (a), according to the editors (p. 174, note 2).
Asma bint Marwan
Among them was Asma bint Marwan, who was married to Yazid ibn Zayd al-Khatmi. She composed verses disparaging Islam and its people, and Umayr ibn Adi killed her. See the report and its variants. 2
