Genealogy of Our Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and Some Accounts of His Forefathers and Ancestors

ابْنُ غَالِبٍ غَالِبٌ: مَنْقُولٌ مِنِ اسْمِ فَاعِلٍ مُشْتَقٍّ مِنَ الْغَلَبِ، يُقَالُ: غَلَبْتُهُ غَلَبًا بِفَتَحَاتٍ فَأَنَا غَالِبٌ. وَيُكَنَّى أَبَا تَيْمٍ، وَأُمُّ غَالِبٍ لَيْلَى ابْنَةُ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ تَمِيمِ بْنِ سَعْدِ بْنِ هُذَيْلٍ، وَإِخْوَتُهُ مِنْ أَبِيهِ وَأُمِّهِ: الْحَارِثُ وَمُحَارِبٌ وَأَسَدٌ وَعَوْفٌ وَجَوْنٌ وَذِئْبٌ، وَكَانَتْ مُحَارِبُ وَالْحَارِثُ مِنْ قُرَيْشِ الظَّوَاهِرِ، فَدَخَلَتِ الْحَارِثُ الْأَبْطَحَ.

Translation

✧ b. Ghālib Ghālib: a transferred name from an active participle derived from gh-l-b, meaning overcoming. One says: ghalabtuhu ghalaban, with three fathahs, so I am ghālib (overcomer). He is given the kunyah Abū Taym. Ghālib's mother was Laylā bt. al-Ḥārith b. Tamīm b. Saʿd b. Hudhayl. His full brothers were al-Ḥārith, Muḥārib, Asad, ʿAwf, Jawn, and Dhiʾb. Muḥārib and al-Ḥārith were among Quraysh al-Ẓawāhir, then al-Ḥārith entered al-Abṭaḥ.
