Encyclopedia > Umm Khultum bint Ali

Ali ibn Abu Talib's daughter, married Aun ibn Ja'far. Ali ibn Abi Talib (علي بن أبي طالب) (c. ...



After the Battle of Karbala she was taken to Yazid I's palace and died shortly after arriving to Medina. This article needs to be cleaned up to conform to a higher standard of quality. ... Yazid bin Muawiyah (c. ...



There are hadith that claim Umar ibn al-Khattab married a 5:th Umm Khultum, and that it was Umm Khultum bint Ali. For other uses of the name, see Umar (disambiguation). ...


Some Sunnis belive that, some reject that. Those hadithes make the following contradictory claims:

  1. Imam 'Ali (as) conducted the Nikah on his own
  2. Abbas was witness to the Nikah
  3. Banu Hashim were forced to agreeing to give Umme Kalthum in marriage
  4. Banu Hashim happily married Umme Kalthum off
  5. No children were born from the marriage.
  6. Children were born from the marriage.
  7. Zaid bin Umar had no children
  8. Zaid bin Umar had children
  9. Zaid bin Umar died a natural death
  10. Zaid bin Umar was murdered
  11. Zaid's mother died on the same day as Zaid
  12. Zaid's mother survived him
  13. Imam 'Ali (as) said that his daughter was under age
  14. Imam 'Ali (as) said that his daughter was NOT under age
  15. After Umar's death she married Awn bin Ja'far
  16. Awn bin Ja'far died whilst she was still married to Umar
  17. Umme Kalthum died during the Caliphate of Mu'awiya
  18. Umme Kalthum was alive at Kerbala


The diffrens between the 5:th Umm Khultum that Umar allegedly married in those Hadithes and Umm Khultum bint Ali are the followin:



The 5:th Umm khultum Umar allegedly married:


1. In 17 Hijri she was a child born 12 Hijri


2. She died during Mu'awiya's reign with her son, in Madina


3. Amr bin Aas and Mugheera bin Shuhba were advisers to the marriage (Tabari)


4. She had children (al Maarif) 4. She had no children (al Aqd al Mundhum)


5. Umar gave dower of 40,000 dirhams


6. She died at least seven years before Kerbala


7. Had multiple marriages


Umm Khultum bint Ali:


1. Born in 6 Hijri so was baligh in 17 Hijri


2. Present at Kerbala, died in 62 Hijri


3. Imam 'Ali arranged the marriage (Aqd Al Fareed) with Aun bin Ja'far


5. 450 Dirhams were given as Dower (same as Sayyida Fatima) [al Aqd al Mundhum]


6. Present in Kerbala made captive by Ibn Ziyad, gave a sermon in Kufa


7. Only one marriage with Aun


The shia quote this hadith:

"Umar bin Adheena asked Imam Ja'far Sadiq (as) 'People claim that 'Ali married his daughter to such a person'. The Imam, who was until then sitting down, stood up and said angrily, "Whoever holds such a viewpoint is misled." Subhanallah! Was Imam 'Ali unable to free his daughter from their clutches? He could have stood between them and her to protect, they have fabricated a lie". [1]

The sunni view:


The marriage between Umar ibn Al-Khatab and Umm Kulthum bintu Ali is historical fact. This marriage is recorded by both shia and sunni books. No one can refute this marriage by only bringing some discrepancies, this marriage is mentioned in all classical history books if we quoted it would fill this page.
