Sajah

Sajah bint Al-Harith ibn Suwayd al-Taghlibi (Arabic: سجاح بنت الحارث بن سويد التغلبي, fl. 598-675 CE) from the tribe of Banu Tamim, was an Arab Christian protected first by her tribe; then causing a split within the Arab tribes and finally defended by Banu Hanifa. Sajah was one of a series of people (including her future husband) who claimed prophethood in the 7th-century Arabia and was also the only female claiming to be a prophetess during the Wars of Apostasy in the early Islamic Period. She later converted to Islam and died a Muslim. Read more on Wikipedia
