Umm Habiba Ramlah bint Abi Sufyan

A grown-up reads you the short text; the longer one you read yourself.

Umm Habiba bint Abi Sufyan, one of the Mothers of the Believers; she migrated for her faith twice — to Abyssinia then to Medina — and the Prophet ﷺ married her.

Umm Habiba Ramlah bint Abi Sufyan (may God be pleased with her) ibn Harb, one of the Mothers of the Believers. She migrated with her husband Ubaydullah ibn Jahsh to Abyssinia fleeing with her faith; he apostatized and she held firm, and the Negus married her to the Prophet ﷺ in a contract completed in Ja'far ibn Abi Talib's presence in Abyssinia. When her father came to Medina on his failed mission and entered her house, she folded the Prophet's bedding away from him and said: 'It is the Messenger of God's bedding, and you are a polytheist man, unclean' — she did not want him sitting on it.
