Naseebah bint Ka'ab, commonly known as Nusaybah bint Ka'ab. Her name is Naseebah bint Kaʿab ibn ʿAmr ibn ʿAwf ibn Mabdhul ibn ʿAmr ibn Ghanm ibn Māzin ibn al-Najjār, and she is the mother of Ḥabīb and ʿAbdullāh, the two sons of Zayd ibn ʿĀṣim.
Nusaybah vs Naseebah
Although often referenced in some modern contexts as Nusaybah, the more accurate name attributed to this historical figure is Naseebah. In the book Explaining the Harakat of the hard names of narrators, their ancestry, and kunyas () by the classic scholar of hadith Ibn Nasir Al-Din Al-Dimashqi (ابن ناصر الدين) he mentions the name of Umm 'Ammarah as spelt نَسِيبة بنت كعب (Naseebah bint Kaab) with the name Nusaybah attributed instead to Nusaybah Bint al-Harith (also Umm ʾAtiyyah). == Battle of al-Yamama ==
Battle of al-Yamama
She witnessed the Battle of al-Yamama with her son, ʿAbdullah, along with the rest of the Muslims. She fought until her hand was injured, and she was wounded twelve times that day. Between a stab and a blow, she narrated on the authority of Muhammad "If food is eaten in the presence of one who is fasting, the angels send blessings upon him." == See also ==
