Biography
Juwayriyyah was the daughter of the chief of Banu al-Mustaliq and was captured in the expedition against her tribe. The Prophet ﷺ freed her and married her, and the Companions then freed the captives of her people out of respect — a great blessing for her tribe.
She was devoted to remembrance of Allah. She died in Madinah around 56 AH.
Virtues
The Prophet ﷺ found her still in remembrance after the morning and taught her four phrases that outweigh what she had said since dawn.
