Sumiyyah (radhiallaho anha) is the mother if Ammar (radhiallaho
anho). just like Ammar her son and Yasir her husband,
she patiently bore the hardships in different forms in the cause of
Islam, She would not dwindle in her love for and devotion to Islam
in spite of all these afflictions. One day Sumiyah (radhiallaho anha)
was standing when Abu- Jahl passed that way. He flung all sorts of
dirty words at her and then put his spear through her private parts.
She died on account of the wound. She is the first to meet martyrdom
for the cause of Islam.
Patience, perseverance and sacrifice of these ladies
are really enviable. No affliction is too much when a person blessed
with the spirit of Islam is determined to bear it. We hear about
hundreds of persons dying for one cause of the other. It is only
dying for the cause of Allah that brings eternal happiness and
comfort in the life to come. Persons losing their lives for material
gains lose twice, i.e., in this world as well as in the hereafter.
