QuizTime (157) Who was that Woman came out wailing with stone in Hand to the Prophet Muhammed(pbuh) but did not see Him(pbuh) though in front of her ?

 

 

Ans: Umm Jamil bint Harb( Cruse be upon her).

His wife was among the leading women of the Quraysh and she was known as Umm Jamil. Her name was `Arwah bint Harb bin Umayyah and she was the sister of Abu Sufyan. She was supportive of her husband in his disbelief, rejection and obstinacy. Therefore, she will be helping to administer his punishment in the fire of Hell on the Day of Judgment.

(And his wife too, who carries wood) (Who carries wood. In her neck is a twisted rope of Masad.), meaning, she will carry the firewood and throw it upon her husband to increase that which he is in (of torment), and she will be ready and prepared to do so.

 Asma Radi Allahu anha bint Abi Bakr said, “When (Perish the two hands of Abu Lahab and perish he)!) was revealed, the one-eyed Umm Jamil bint Harb came out wailing, and she had a stone in her hand. She was saying, He criticizes our father, and his religion is our scorn, and his command is to disobey us.’ The Messenger of Allah was sitting in the Masjid (of the Kabah) and Abu Bakr Radi Allahu anhu was with him. When Abu Bakr Radi Allahu anhu saw her he said, `O Messenger of Allah! She is coming and I fear that she will see you.’ The Messenger of Allah replied, (Verily, she will not see me.) Then he recited some of the Qur’an as a protection for himself. This is as Allah says, (And when you recite the Qur’an, We put between you and those who believe not in the Hereafter, an invisible veil.) (17:45)

So she advanced until she was standing in front of Abu Bakr Abu Bakr Radi Allahu anhu and she did not see the Messenger of Allah . She then said, `O Abu Bakr! Verily, I have been informed that your friend is making defamatory poetry about me.’

Abu Bakr Radi Allahu anhu replied, Nay! By the Lord of this House (the Kabah) he is not defaming you.’ So she turned away saying, `Indeed the Quraysh know that I am the daughter of their leader.”
