Musaylima (Arabic: مُسَيْلِمَةُ), otherwise known as Musaylima ibn Ḥabīb (Arabic: مسيلمه ابن حبيب) d.632, was a claimant of prophethood [1][2][3] from the Banu Hanifa tribe.[4][5] Based from Diriyah in present day Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, he claimed to be a prophet and was an enemy of Islam in 7th-century Arabia. He was a leader of the enemies of Islam during the Ridda wars.[6] He is considered by Muslims to be a false prophet (Arabic: نبي كاذب).[7] He is commonly called Musaylima al-Kadhāb (Musaylima the Arch-Liar) by Muslims.[8]
