Biography
Rabi’a al-’Adawiyya was a Sufi mystic and poet from the 8th century C.E. whose life records stem mostly from historical narratives. She lived in Basra, Iraq between 717 and 801 C.E. The only evidence historians have of her is literary.

While there is no physical evidence found of her, Rabi’a’s story and poetry remain an inspiration to women and Muslim people today.
