Hazrat Umme Haani (ra) was married to Hubairah Bin Makhzam, who was a renowned poet among the Quraish. He never embraced Islam, and at the time of Makkah’s conquest, he fled to Najran and remained a non-believer.1 Almighty Allah gifted Hazrat Umme Haani (ra) with four sons: Hazrat Haani (ra), Hazrat Amrra, Hazrat Ja‘dah (ra), and Hazrat Yousuf (ra). As was common at the time, her name was connected to her eldest son (Mother of Haani (ra)). All four accepted Islam and served their faith throughout their lives.2 Hazrat Umme Haani (ra) entered the fold of Islam at the time of Makkah’s conquest. However, some sources suggest that she had accepted Islam earlier but did not let anyone know.
