The shaykha, scholar, virtuous and authoritative transmitter, Umm al-Kirām Karīmah bint Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad ibn Ḥātim (2) al-Marwaziyyah (3), who resided in the Sacred Precinct of Mecca.

She heard hadith from Abū al-Haytham al-Kushmīhānī (4) (the Ṣaḥīḥ of al-Bukhārī) and from Zāhir ibn Aḥmad al-Sarkhasī (5) and ʿAbd Allāh ibn Yūsuf ibn Bāmuyah al-Aṣbahānī (6).

Whenever she transmitted, she would collate the narration with her own master copy, and she was endowed with keen understanding and sound knowledge, together with virtue and devotional worship.

She recited the Ṣaḥīḥ on numerous occasions; once it was read before her by Abū Bakr al-Khaṭīb during the pilgrimage season. She died a virgin, never having married.
