Jahsh ibn Riyab (Arabic: جحش بن رئاب), was a companion of Muhammad.
Originally from the Asad ibn Khuzayma tribe,[1] he settled in Mecca and formed an alliance with Harb ibn Umayya, chief of the leading clan of the Quraysh tribe. He married Umayma bint Abd al-Muttalib, a member of the Hashim clan and aunt of Muhammad,[2] and they had six children.
- Abd Allah.[3][4][5][6]
- Ubayd Allah.[7][8][9]
- Zaynab, later a wife of Muhammad.[10][11][12][13][14][15]
- Abd, always known as an adult by his kunya, Abu Ahmad.[16][17][18][19]
- Habiba, also known as Umm Habib.[20][21]
- Hamna.[22][23][24]
It is said that Jahsh emigrated to Abyssinia and joined Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas in overseas military conquests. “The Chams of Cambodia ascribe their conversion to one of the fathers-in-law of Muhammad”[25] named "Geys" (Jahsh). “The Chinese Muhammadans have a legend that their faith was first preached in China by a maternal uncle of the Prophet, and his reputed tomb at Canton is highly venerated by them.”[26] What later generations misconstrued as the tomb of "Geys" appears to have been a mausoleum dedicated to his memory in Hami, 400 miles east of Ürümqi in Xinxiang.[27]
However, “there is not the slightest historical base for this legend.”[28] Jahsh is not even listed among those who emigrated to Abyssinia,[29] although it may be that he departed permanently from Mecca independently from the general emigration.
