Was the woman mentioned in the Hadith: "Indeed, Banu Hisham ibn al-Mughirah sought permission to marry their daughter to Ali ibn Abi Talib, and I do not permit it, then I do not permit it, then I do not permit it, unless Ibn Abi Talib wishes to divorce my daughter and marry their daughter, for she is but a piece of me; what troubles her troubles me, and what harms her harms me," Muslim or not? And is her name known?
This story is authentically narrated in the Two Sahihs (Bukhari and Muslim) and occurred after the فتح مكة (Conquest of Mecca), which indicates that the woman mentioned was a Muslim.
She was the daughter of Abu Jahl. There is disagreement regarding her name; it has been said: Juwairiyah, or Al-Awraa’, or Al-Hanfaa’, or Jurhumah, or Jamilah.
