CHAPTER 49: THE BIRTH OF ABDULLAH IBN AZ-ZUBAIR IN SHAWWAL

THE BIRTH OF ABDULLAH IBN AZ-ZUBAIR IN SHAWWAL, THE YEAR OF HIJRAH

He was the first child to be born in Islam among the emigrants just as an-Nu’man Ibn Basheer was the first child to be born amongst the Ansar after the migration of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessing of Allah be upon him), Allah be pleased with both of them. Some have claimed that Ibn Az-Zubair was born twenty months after the hijrah.

Al-Bukhari related that Asma’ conceived Abdullah Ibn Az-Zubair, she narrated: “I migrated to Madinah while I was at full term of pregnancy and alighted at Quba where I gave birth to him. Then I brought him to the Prophet and put him in his lap. The Prophet asked for a date, chewed it, and put some of its juice in the child’s mouth. So, the first thing that entered the child’s stomach was the saliva of Allah’s Messenger (peace and blessing of Allah be upon him). Then the Prophet rubbed the child’s palate with a date and invoked for Allah’s Blessings on him, and he was the first child born amongst the Emigrants in Al-Islam.”
