Did the Messenger, may the best prayers and peace be upon him, have his daughter divorced?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, divorced his two daughters Ruqayya and Umm Kulthum from Abu Lahab's sons before consummating the marriages, because they had disbelieved in the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. Then Uthman married Ruqayya, and when she passed away, he married her sister Umm Kulthum, and that is why he was titled Dhun-Nurayn (the Possessor of the Two Lights).
