Umm Habib bint Umar al-Atraf

Umm Habib is identified in Lubab al-Ansab as a daughter of Umar ibn Ali, known as Umar al-Atraf, a son of Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib. The same source names her mother as Asma bint Aqil ibn Abi Talib and places Umm Habib with Muhammad, Ismail and Umm Musa among the children born from that marriage. This establishes her within both the Alid branch of Umar al-Atraf and the Aqilid maternal line.

The genealogical sources state that she was married to Husayn ibn Hasan ibn Ali, identified in the same family tradition as Husayn al-Athram, a son of Imam Hasan al-Mujtaba. The received administrative spouse link is therefore consistent with the classical record. No evidence found in the focused audit contradicts the existing confirmed relationship, and the documented marriage details have remained unchanged.

Two children are consistently connected with this marriage: Ali ibn Husayn, also described as Ali al-Asghar, and Fatima bint Husayn. Ibn Sa'd independently names Ali and Fatima and identifies their mother as Umm Habib bint Umar ibn Ali. This agreement between genealogical traditions provides a strong basis for the marriage and motherhood claims without requiring unsupported details about the household.

Firaq al-Shia preserves the maternal line of Fatima bint Husayn and names Umm Habib as her mother and Asma bint Aqil as her maternal grandmother. In that source, Fatima is identified as the mother of Ismail and Abd Allah, sons of Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq. Umm Habib therefore occupies a documented genealogical position linking the Umarid Alid, Hasanid and later Ja'farid family branches.

The surviving sources do not preserve Umm Habib's exact birth date or place, education, personal activities, date and circumstances of death, or an individual burial location. These omissions are normal for many women known primarily through early family lists. A responsible profile should preserve the verified lineage, marriage and children while leaving unsupported personal chronology and shrine claims unfilled.
