Khawlah bint Hakim (Arabic: خولة بنت حكيم) was one of the female companions of Muhammad.

She was married to Uthman bin Maz'oon, both being two of the earliest converts to Islam.[1] She was the woman who asked the Prophet whether he would like to marry any woman again, after the death of Khadijah, as he had loved her dearly and needed to move on from his mourning.

After the consent of the Prophet, she conveyed the message to Sawdah bint Zam'ah (widow of ) and Abu Bakr for his daughter Aisha's hand in marriage.
