Question:
And not intelligent. And We revealed the establishment of a prison for our eyes and others and others. So these matters are trustworthy for the eyes around Allah knows best. The question that the eyes around Allah knows best

Answer:
Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) did not have any children; rather, she was named Umm Abdullah because of her nephew Abdullah, the son of her sister, Abdullah ibn al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him), because a maternal aunt is in the position of a mother. So she was given the kunya of her sister's son, whose name was Abdullah ibn al-Zubayr. It is permissible for a person to take a kunya, even if he has no children; this is permissible. It is permissible to take the kunya Abu So-and-so even if he has no children, and Umm So-and-so even if she has no children. This is permissible. Yes.
