Name the foster mother(s) of the Holy Prophet (SAW)?

The correct answer is: Both of them.

Prophet Muhammad (SAW) had two well-known foster mothers: **Hazrat Suwaiba (RA)** and **Hazrat Halima Saadia (RA)**. Both of these women played important roles in his early life and are respected figures in Islamic history.

Hazrat Suwaiba (RA): She was a servant of Abu Lahab, the uncle of the Prophet. After the birth of Muhammad (SAW), she had the honor of nursing him for a short time. Suwaiba had also breastfed Hamza ibn Abdul Muttalib (RA), making Hamza the Prophet’s foster brother. The Prophet (SAW) always remembered Suwaiba with respect and kindness. Even after receiving Prophethood, he used to send gifts to her. When he heard of her death, he was deeply saddened.

Hazrat Halima Saadia (RA): She was from the tribe of Banu Saad. According to the custom of that time, noble families of Makkah would send their infants to the countryside to be raised in a healthy and pure environment. Halima Saadia was chosen to take care of Muhammad (SAW). She experienced many blessings during the time she raised him — her animals gave more milk, and her home was filled with peace and prosperity. She raised him lovingly for several years and returned him to his mother Amina after he had grown a bit older.

Both women are honored in Islamic history for their care and affection toward the Prophet in his infancy. Their sacrifices and roles are not forgotten and are often taught in Islamic studies.

So, the correct answer is “Both of them” — Hazrat Suwaiba (RA) and Hazrat Halima Saadia (RA).
