As for the two with whom he did not consummate his marriage, they were ʿAmrah and al-Sanā. As for the thirteen with whom he did consummate his marriages, the first was Khadījah bt. Khuwaylid; then Sawdah bt. Zamʿah; then Umm Salamah, whose name was Hind bt. Abī Umayyah; then Umm ʿAbd Allāh, ʿĀʾishah bt. Abī Bakr; then Ḥafṣah bt. ʿUmar; then Zaynab bt. Khuzaymah b. al-Ḥārith, the mother of the poor; then Zaynab bt. Jaḥsh; then Umm Ḥabībah, who is Ramlah bt. Abī Sufyān; then Maymūnah bt. al-Ḥārith; then Zaynab bt. ʿUmays; then Juwayriyyah bt. al-Ḥārith; and finally Ṣafiyyah bt. Ḥuyayy b. Akhṭab. As for the one who gave herself to the Prophet (ṣ), it was Khawlah bt. Ḥakīm al-Sulamī. He, additionally, had two concubines he would alternate nights with, as he did with his wives: Māriyah and Rayḥānah of Khandaq.
