It is narrated from Muhammad bin Umar (al-Waqidi) that among these women is Umm Ayman, the freed slave-woman and nanny of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Her name is Barakah. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) received her as inheritance (from his father's estate) together with five camels and a flock of goats. When he (peace and blessings be upon him) married Sayyidah Khadijah (may Allah be pleased with her), he freed Umm Ayman. She was married to Ubayd bin Yazid of Banu al-Harith bin al-Khazraj, and from him her son Ayman was born, who was martyred in the Battle of Hunayn. Zayd bin Harithah was the slave of Sayyidah Khadijah (may Allah be pleased with her), whom she gifted to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him); he (peace and blessings be upon him) freed him and, after the Prophethood, married him to Umm Ayman, and from them Usamah bin Zayd was born.

It is narrated from an elder of Banu Sa'd bin Bakr that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to address Sayyidah Umm Ayman (may Allah be pleased with her) as "O my mother!", and whenever he looked at her he would say: "She is the remnant of my household."
