Some sources considered all the above-mentioned names a result of innovation and mistake and believe that such a person did not basically exist in the [[Event of 'Ashura]]. According to them, this person with all his different names was actually [['Abd Allah b. 'Umayr al-Kalbi]] who was among the martyrs of Karbala and was considered among the old companions of [[Imam Ali (a)]] and Imam al-Husayn (a); and his name is mentioned in [[Ziyarah al-Shuhada']] and [[Al-Ziyarah al-Rajabiyya li-l-Imam al-Husayn (a)|al-Ziyarah al-Rajabiyya]].

More recent researches have accepted the similarity between the events related with Wahb and 'Abd Allah b. 'Umayr, and do not consider the existence of the two people impossible and even consider it very likely with regards to the many differences in the events reported about them. The most important difference between the two is that sources introduced Wahb Christian who became Muslim by the guidance of Imam al-Husayn (a); while, they mentioned that 'Abd Allah b. 'Umayr was among the old companions of Imam al-Husayn (a).

[[Umm Wahb]] was daughter of 'Abd from the family of Namir b. Qasit and the wife of [['Abd Allah b. 'Umayr Kalbi]] was among the martyrs of the event of Karbala. Some sources considered her, the mother of Wahb b.

'Umayr al-Kalbi; reports including that his wife also went to the battlefield, grasped his clothes and said that, "I would not return until I am killed with you", and Imam al-Husayn (a) returned her to the tent with the promise of receiving good rewards in the hereafter; so, she returned to other women. It is said that Wahb killed twelve foot soldiers and nineteen horsemen of the [[army of Ibn Sa'd]]. Then, he was taken captive and was beheaded by the order of [['Umar b. Sa'd]]. Then, they threw his head toward the army of Imam al-Husayn (a).
