Fatima bint al-Khattab (Arabic: فاطمة بنت الخطاب, romanized: Fāṭima bint al-Khaṭṭāb) was a woman in Arabia who was a disciple (Sahaba) of the Islamic prophet Muhammad. She was the sister of Umar (r. 634–644) and Zayd ibn al-Khattab. She was the youngest daughter of Khattab ibn Nufayl, who married her to his nephew, Sa'id ibn Zayd. Fatima along with her husband both converted to Islam together at the same time.[1]
