Urwah narrates about Sayyida Umm Habibah (may Allah be pleased with her): She was the wife of Ubaydullah bin Jahsh. Ubaydullah passed away in Abyssinia, so the Negus married Sayyida Umm Habibah (may Allah be pleased with her) to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) and gave her four thousand dirhams as dowry on his behalf. Then he sent her to the service of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) (in Madinah Munawwarah) along with Sayyiduna Shurahbil bin Hasanah (may Allah be pleased with him).
