Muzna, Marwan's widow

Muzna, the wife of Marwan ibn Muhammad, the last of the Umayyad caliphs. She entered upon al-Khayzuran in ragged clothes, and remained in the palace of al-Mahdi and after him. ²

She said that she was "a borrower". Zaynab bint Sulayman ibn Ali reminded her that she had entered upon her in Harran, on this same carpet, when she spoke to her about the body of Ibrahim the Imam, and she rebuked her. ²

When al-Khayzuran told al-Mahdi, he wept. He said, according to al-Mas'udi, that she was the greatest of their women. He granted her an estate and gave her servants. ²

She stayed in his palace in the days of al-Mahdi and al-Hadi and part of the days of al-Rashid, until she died. ²
