Historical Account
A few months preceding the occurrence of the Aṣḥābul-Fīl, ‘Abdul- Muṭṭalib married off his son ‘Abdullāh with Āminah bint Wahb, who was an exceedingly noble girl of a respected family in the tribe of the Banū Zuhrah of the Quraish. At that time ‘Abdullāh was 25 years of age, or in light of certain
narrations, 17 years of age. At this occasion, ‘Abdul-Muṭṭalib himself also married a cousin of Āminah named Hāllah bint Wahb. Ḥamzah was born of this very Hāllah.
