Sarah (born Sarai) is a biblical matriarch, prophet, and major figure in Abrahamic religions.

Sarah has her feast day on 1 September in the Catholic Church, 19 August in the Coptic Orthodox Church, 20 January in the LCMS, and 12 and 20 December in the Eastern Orthodox Church.

Such unions were later explicitly banned in the Book of Leviticus (). However, some commentators identify her as Iscah (Genesis 11:29), a daughter of Abraham's brother Haran.Schwartz, Howard, (1998).
