Women in War

[Kraxis]

I heard somewhere she wounded 12 men at the battle of Uhud, fighting next to Muhammed:

She sustained twelve wounds in that battle and her hand was lopped off.# [Musailama was killed in the battle.]

She also participated in combat at the Battle of Uhud (much earlier), and was party to the Pledge of Ridwan as well."

Interesting coincidence... Wounded twelve and was later wounded twelve times herself (it isn't clear if the hand is considered one of the twelve). If we are to believe it then fate has come back to even the score it seems.
