9.2. EMBRACING ISLAM
She and her husband embraced Islam in its very early days and were enumerated among the early Muslims.
Hearing of their embracing Islam, Quraysh flew into a rage and Abu Sufyan, leader of the polytheists, was astounded and could not believe that his own daughter abandoned her fathers’ religion for the sake of Islam.
Abu Sufyan never thought that anybody could ever break or disobey his orders so it was a fierce defiance for him when his own daughter ceased worshiping his gods and believed in Allah, the One and Only. He tried with all his might and main to make her return to his religion but it was all in vain for her heart was already saturated with the light of faith.
Abu Sufyan was overwhelmed by grief. He felt disgraced for failing to make his daughter revert to her fathers’ religion. And when Quraysh found Abu Sufyan discontented with his daughter and her husband, they waged a war against both Umm Habibah and her husband, consequently, life in Makkah became a nightmare for them.
