Life
She was a daughter of the Prophet ﷺ and Khadija, the third in Ibn 'Abd al-Barr's order. She was first married to 'Utayba, a son of Abu Lahab, who left her before the marriage was consummated, as his brother left Ruqayya.
After Ruqayya died, the Prophet ﷺ married her to 'Uthman ibn 'Affan, who for marrying two of his daughters was called Dhu an-Nurayn, the one of the two lights. She had no children by him, and died in Sha'ban 9 AH, as an-Nawawi gives it.
