The report about al-Hasan al-Basri

Al-Baladhuri says it is said that al-Hasan al-Basri and his brother Sa'id came to her from the captives of Maysan, and she set them free, so their clientage became hers. It is also said that their companion was Jamila, the wife of Anas, of the Banu Salama. The report differs about her identity. 1
