Sumayyah bint Khabbat (Árabe: سمية بنت خباطّ; c.550-c.615) fue el primer miembro de la Ummah (en árabe: أمّـة‎, Comunidad) islámica en convertirse en shahidah (en árabe: سمية بنت خباطّ‎: شـهـيـدة, mártir). ^[1]^[2]^[3]

Primeros años

Era una esclava abisinia de Abu Hudhayfa ibn al-Mughira, un miembro del clan Makhzum de La Meca.^[4]

Su amo la dio en matrimonio a Yasir ibn Amir, quién era del clan Malik de la tribu Madhhij de Yemen. Después de llegar a La Meca buscando un hermano perdido, había decidido quedarse allí bajo la protección de Abu Hudhayfa.^: 188 Sumayyah dio a luz a su hijo Ammar hacia 566.^: 188^[5] Yasir también tuvo otros dos hijos, Hurth y Abdullah, pero nada indica que Sumayyah fuera la madre.^: 189

Un tiempo después, Abu Hudhayfa liberó a Sumayyah y su hijo Ammar; pero quedaron como sus clientes por el resto de su vida.^: 188^[6] Se dice que Abu Hudhayfa murió "antes del Islam"; otra versión cuenta que "era uno de los que se burlaban del Profeta".

Conversión al islam

Según una tradición, Sumayyah fue la séptima persona en "mostrar el Islam", después de los primeros seis: Mahoma, Ali, Bilal, Khabbab, Suhayb y su hijo Ammar.^: 178 Pero "mostrar el Islam" podría referirse a algo distinto a la conversión entonces, según otra tradición, Ammar no fue convertido hasta después de que los musulmanes entraron en la casa de al-Arqam "después de treinta hombres".^: 189 Yasir y su hijo Abdullah también se convirtieron "en el auge del Islam," pero Hurth había sido asesinado por el clan Dil antes de 610.^{: 188–189}^: 185^[7]^: 189

Los Quraysh perseguían a los musulmanes de bajo rango social.^[8]^: 143 Sumayyah y su familia eran vulnerables desde la muerte de su patrón, y fueron otros miembros del clan Makhzum quienes les torturaron para presionarles a abandonar su nueva fe.^: 145^[9] En una ocasión la metieron en un gran cántaro lleno de agua y la alzaron de modo que no pudiera huir. Ella, Yasir y Ammar también fueron forzados a permanecer bajo el sol al calor del mediodía vestidos con abrigos de pieles.^: 145^: 178 Mahoma pasó mientras estaban así y les instó, "Paciencia, Oh familia de Yasir! Vuestro lugar de reunión será el Paraíso."^: 145^: 190

A pesar de que es descrita como "una vieja y frágil mujer", Sumayyah se mantuvo firme y rechazó abandonar el Islam.^: 145

Muerte

Al anochecer Abu Jahl, también miembro del clan Makhzum, fue a verla allí de pie y empezó a insultarla. Terminó acuchillándola y la empaló con su lanza por sus partes íntimas.^: 145^: 178

Cuando Abu Jahl fue muerto en Badr, Mahoma le dijo a Ammar, "Alá ha matado al asesino de vuestra madre."^: 186

Tabari menciona una historia alternativa de la vida de Sumayyah. Dice que se casó con un esclavo bizantino llamado Azraq después de la muerte de Yasir. Le dio un hijo llamado Salamah y su descendencia se casó en la familia Umayyad. Tabari también señala que algunas historias pueden deberse a una posible confusión entre dos mujeres mecanas contemporáneas llamadas ambas Sumayyah.^[10]

Referencias históricas

La referencia más temprana al asesinato de Sumayyah se encuentra en la biografía de Mahoma de Ibn Ishaq (muerto en 761), Siratu Rasulullah ("Biografía del Mensajero de Dios").^[11]^: 143^[12] Su nombre, Sumayyah, no es explícitamente mencionado por Ibn Ishaq; es una deducción de la referencia a su hijo como Ammar "hijo de Sumayya".^: 229 Aun así, es nombrada como Sumayyah en las historias de Ibn Saad^{: 178, 188} y Tabari.
