Person
Sajah
Sajah was a woman from the Tamim tribe of northern Arabia who claimed prophethood after the death of the Prophet Muhammad in 632 CE. She attracted a following and allied for a time with another claimant, Musaylima. Accounts of the Rashidun Caliphate list her among the rival prophetic figures around whom Arab tribes rallied during the Ridda Wars.
