It is narrated from Muhammad bin Umar (al-Waqidi) that in the name of Sayyidah Umaymah bint Ruqayqah, Ruqayqah is the name of her mother. Her father was Abdullah bin Bijad, and her mother, Ruqayqah bint Khuwaylid, was the sister of the Mother of the Believers Sayyidah Khadijah bint Khuwaylid (may Allah be pleased with her). Sayyidah Umaymah took up residence away from her homeland, and she was married to Habib bin Ku'ayb al-Thaqafi, by whom she had children. She lived on after the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and narrated reports from him (peace and blessings be upon him).
