Fatima bint muhammad

Week:1
Fatima, born to Muhammad(SAW) and Kadijah, was the youngest daughter of the Prophet. She was born the year the Kaba was rebuilt, when the Prophet (SAW) put the black stone in its place.When Fatima was 5 the Prophet (SAW) got his first Revelation. As she grew up, she learned about Islam as it was reveled. During Fatima's youth the Muslims were having a difficult time. Once her father, Muhammad(SAW) was praying by the Kaba and the remains of sheep was thrown on his head and shoulders. Fatima ran and cleaned her father, as she could not bare to see her father treated in that manner.Time passed and when Fatima was 15 her mother, Kadijah passed away. It was a tremendous loss for Fatima. After 1/2 a year of living in Medina, Ali proposed marriage to Fatima.In order to provide a Mihr Ali sold one of his camels. Rasullah (SAW) told Ali to invest 2/3 of the money in sent and 1/3 of the money in clothes. For the wedding feast, Saad of the Ansar offered a Ram and a group Ansar collected Millet. Fatima was dressed in 2 robes. Fatima had 5 children with Ali,Al- Hasan, Al- Husain, Umm Kulthum, Zainab, and Muhsin (who died as a baby). Fatima often brought them to visit the Prophet. Fatima's life was short. All her life she was a faithful and inspiring daughter, mother, wife and friend. Rasullah (SAW) loved his daughter dearly. Rasullah (SAW) said " Fatima is the mistrerss of the woman in paridise"
