Aisha bint
Abu Bakr (also
spelled A'Ishah, Ayşe, Ayesha, 'A'isha, or 'Aisha, عائشة
a'isha, "she who lives") was a wife of the Islamic
prophet Muhammad.
In Islamic writings, she is thus often referred to by the title
"Mother of the Believers" (Arabic: "Umm-al-Momineen").
She is quoted as source for many hadith (traditions about
Muhammad's life), with Muhammad's personal life being the topic
of most narrations.
