Sahaba Role Models

She Buried Aminah, the Prophet’s Mother. She Raised Muhammad ﷺ. Who Was She?

Sahaba Role Models Season 3 Episode 6

In this deeply moving episode, we bring to light the powerful and often overlooked story of Barakah—better known as Umm Ayman. 

An Abyssinian woman of unknown lineage, she was the only person to be with the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ from his birth until his death. Often described by the Prophet himself as “my mother after my own mother,” Umm Ayman raised him when he was orphaned and remained a pillar of strength, love, and support throughout his life.

Why is someone so essential to the Prophet’s upbringing so little known among Muslims today?

We explore her unwavering devotion, her key role in early Islam, and why honoring her legacy matters now more than ever. 

Her story is one of loyalty, courage, and divine favor—she was promised Paradise by the Prophet himself. Tune in to rediscover the woman who shaped the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.
