Fāṭimah bint ʿAmr (Arabic: فاطمة بنت عمرو; d.576) was the grandmother of Muhammad and Ali ibn Abi Talib and one of the wives of Abd al-Muttalib ibn Hashim. She was from the Banu Makhzum clan of the Quraysh tribe, unlike her co-wives, most of whom were from outlying tribes and had relatively little influence in Mecca.[1] One of her co-wives (Hālah bint Wuhayb), however, was from the Banu Zuhrah clan of the Quraysh.
Her full name was Fatimah bint `Amr ibn `A'idh ibn `Imran ibn Makhzum ibn Yaqaza. Her mother was Sakhrah bint Abd ibn `Imran, also from Banu Makhzum; Sakhrah's mother was Takhmur bint `Abd ibn Qusai ibn Kilab.[2]
