Thuwaiba, or also spelled as Sobia or Suwaiba, has the unique claim to fame for being the first foster mother of Prophet Muhammad and his first wet nurse.
She was a slave woman who belonged to Abu Lahab.
At the birth of Muhammad, she nursed him for a short time.
She nursed Hamza ibn Abdul Muttalib (R.A) as well. Hence, Hazrat Hamza (R.A) became the ‘milk brother’ of Prophet Muhammad.
After this, Halimah al-Sa’diyah took care of Muhammad for a few years in the desert and became his well-known foster mother.
