Al-Akwa,who then presented her beauty to the prophet.On this prophet remarked "What girl did you take, oh Salama?" Salama responded "A girl ,O messenger of God with whom i hope to ransom a woman of ours from Banu Farazara", after being asked the same question repeatedly, Salama quickly sensed that prophet wanted the girl for himself so he offered the girl to prophet, however prophet instead gifted the girl to Hazn b Abu Wahb his maternal uncle, for "private use". This union bore them, Abdu'l-Rahmān b. Hazn.
Ibn Ishaq, the "first biographer" of Muhammad writes that:
Allah’s Messenger sent Zayd to Wadi Qura, where he encountered the Banu Fazarah. Some of his Companions were killed, and Zayd was carried away wounded. Ward was slain by the Banu Badr. When Zayd returned, he vowed that no washing should touch his head until he had raided the Fazarah. After he recovered, Muhammad sent him with an army against the Fazarah settlement. He met them in Qura and inflicted casualties on them and took Umm Qirfah prisoner. He also took one of Umm’s daughters and Abdallah bin Mas’adah prisoner. Ziyad bin Harithah ordered Qays to kill Umm Qirfah, and he killed her cruelly. He tied each of her legs with a rope and tied the ropes to two camels, and they split her in two.
