Ruqayya bint ʿAlī (Arabic: رقية بنت علي) was a daughter of the fourth caliph Ali ibn Abi Talib (r. 656–661). She is considered an Alid saint (a Sayyida), her mother is Al-Sahba bint Rabi'a.[1] She is claimed to be a full-sister of Abbas ibn Ali on a name plate (shown in the image on the right) in her mashhad (shrine) in Cairo, where she is traditionally considered to be a patron saint. Her shrine in Cairo is still used as an oratory where vows and intercessionary prayers to her are offered.[2]
She is believed to have died when she was a child.
There is also a shrine in Lahore (Pakistan) called Bibi Pak Daman (Urdu: بی بی پاکدامن Bībī Pāk Dāman) which locals believe to be the mausoleum of Ruqayya bint Ali.[3]
