Biography of the UMM HAKIM bint al-Harith
became Muslim on the day of the conquest of Makkah, and her husband 'Ikrimah bin Abi Jahl fled from Islam as far as Yemen.
Umm Hakim set out after him until she came to him in Yemen, and she invited him to Islam and he became Muslim.
He then went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.
When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw him, he rushed to him in joy and did not bother to put on his cloak until he had made the pledge with him.
Their marriage remained valid and they were not commanded to remarry.
Umm Hakim's story is a reminder that it is never too late to come to Islam.
Even those who have committed the worst of sins can be forgiven and accepted by Allah. It is also a reminder of the importance of perseverance and never giving up on those we love. Umm Hakim's faith and determination were ultimately rewarded, and she was blessed to have a loving husband and a close relationship with the Prophet Muhammad.
May Allah bless Umm Hakim and her husband, Ikrimah, and may their story continue to inspire us all.
