Mariya Al-Qibtiyyah as one of the mothers of the believers



Mariya Al-Qibtiyyah as one
of the mothers of the believers

The sixth question of Fatwa no. 5848
Q 6: is Mariyah Al-Qibtiyyah who was given to the Prophet (peace be upon him) by Al-Muqawqis as
(Part No. 18; Page No. 10)
a gift and the mother of his son Ibrahim, considered one of the Prophet's wives and a mother of the believers?
A: Mariyah Al-Qibtiyyah who was given to the Prophet (peace be upon him) by Al-Muqawqis can neither be one of his wives nor a mother of the believers. She was a concubine and gave birth to his son Ibrahim, and as such she is "mother of the son." May Allah grant us success! May peace and blessings of Allah be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family and Companions!
