Q: I get conflicting answers on how many children did the prophet have. Can you tell me the names of the faithful mothers that gave birth to prophets children? also the name of the blessed children. I ma going to give birth and I would like to know names I could use. I am seeking female names as suggestions. (email.)

A: Rasullullah (SAW) had seven children. Three sons and four daughters. Zainab, Ruqayyah, Ummi Kulthum, Faatimah, Qasim and Abdullah (also known as Tahir and Tayyib) were all from Khadeejah (RA.)

Mariya Qibtiyah (RA) gave birth to Ibraheim (RA.)(See bidayah whan niayah)

Allah Certainly Knows Best.
