May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good. Honorable Shaykh, is it true that Maryam al-Qibtiyyah was one of the wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and the mother of Ibrahim (peace be upon him)?
Answer:
Maryam al-Qibtiyyah was a concubine of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), a slave woman whom the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took as a concubine; she was not one of his wives. She was a concubine, meaning a slave, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had relations with her by right of ownership. She bore Ibrahim, the son of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). He died while still young, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) grieved for him. Yes.
