Her marriage

Sayyidah Sakinah (R.A.) married Mus’ab bin al-Zubayr ibn al-Awwam, and what a good wife she was to her husband and what a good mother she was to her children. She performed her house chores and reared her children in accordance with the Prophetic guidance, which she had inherited from her father. After her marriage to Mus’ab ibn al-Zubayr, her star shone even more brilliantly in the universe of virtuous women and earned widespread fame in the Islamic territories for her knowledge, gracious morals and the kind of care she accorded her children and husband. In 72 AH, her husband Muṣʿab was killed by Ḥajjāj ibn Yūsuf. The majority of the narrators and historians suggest that Lady Sakina married three times: first to Mus’ab ibn al-Zubayr, followed by Abdullah ibn Uthman ibn Abdullah, and then Zayd ibn Amr ibn Uthman ibn Affan.
