He was popularly known as Marwan I. He had known the Islamic prophet Muhammad and is thus considered a companion, and served as the secretary and right-hand man of his kinsman, the Caliph, Uthman Affan al-Umayyah.

Marwan had at least sixteen children, among them at least twelve sons from five wives and an umm walad (concubine).[6]

A'isha bint Muʿawiya ibn al-Mughira was the first wife of Marwan ibn al-Ḥakam ibn Abi al-ʿAs ibn Umayya (abt 623-685), who was the fourth caliph of the Umayyad dynasty (reigned 684–685) [1] and the first of the Marwanid caliphs. [2]

From his wife A'isha, a daughter of his paternal first cousin Mu'awiya ibn al-Mughira, he had his eldest son Abd al-Malik, Mu'awiya and daughter Umm Amr.[6][7] Umm Amr later married Sa'id ibn Khalid ibn Amr, a great-grandson of Marwan's paternal first cousin Uthman ibn Affan, who became caliph (leader of the Muslim community) in 644.[8]

Given name also shown as Aisha, Aminah and Amina

She was married to Marwân I bin al-Hakam, the son of al-Hakam bin Abu al-ʻAs.

Many Western sources call 'Aisha a daughter of the Prophet Muhammad's daughter Ruqayyah. However, Ruqayyah had only one known child, a son named 'Abd-allâh who died at the age of 6. These sources are based on later Umayyid propaganda that claimed a descent from Muhammad for the Umayidd caliphs. The Umayidd claim was rejected by other descendants of Muhammad.

Arab sources identify her as a daughter of Uthman's Christian wife, Nayla bint Farasa.
