زينب بنت شيقوق هي الزوجة الثانية لوالد بابكر بدري كما ورد في الجزء الاول من كتاب (تأريخ حياتي)

Quote: In the on going family feud between you, and our mutual friend, Abubakr, I relate to both of you. My maternal family, and Abubakr's families know each other for almost 100 years since the time of his great uncle, Ahmed Effendi Mamour Shendi, and my materanl great grand father Sheikh Mohamed Shibeika. Like the great friend of Sudan, and Nubian civilization, Professor William Adams, your buddy Abubakr believes correctly that my maternal , and paternal families are Arabized Nubians, or Nubianized Arabs.
