Overview
A woman of whom Ibn Ishaq names only her name, her lineage, and two verses she composed on the killing of Abu Afak. In them she addresses him as one who denies the religion of God and the man Ahmad, and swears by the One who made them secure that it was an evil wish, and that "a Hanif", meaning a Muslim, had struck him with a spear in the last part of the night, so let him take her in his old age 1. See the two verses.
