Marida bint Shabib (Arabic: ماريدا بنت شبيب‎) was the mother of eighth Abbasid caliph Al-Mu'tasim, who ruled Abbasid Caliphate from 833 to 842.

Muhammad, (the future al-Mu'tasim), was born in the Khuld ("Eternity") Palace in Baghdad, but the exact date is unclear: according to the historian al-Tabari (839–923), his birth was placed by authorities either in Sha'ban AH 180 (October 796 CE), or in AH 179 (Spring 796 CE or earlier).[1] His parents were the fifth Abbasid caliph, Harun al-Rashid (r. 786–809), and Marida, a slave concubine.[2][3] Otherwise unknown, Marida was born in Kufa, but her family hailed from Soghdia, and she is usually considered to have been of Turkic origin.[4]

Marida bint Shabib and Harun al-Rashid were the ancestor of subsequent Abbasid caliphs. Marida died in early ninth century.
