She passed away on Monday night 3rd of Ramadan 11 A.H. Her age at that time according to the scholars was 28\/29 years. Many views are recorded regarding the age and date of death of Fatimah RA by the historians. [Al Bidayah wa Nihayah vol. 6 pg. 334] Fatimah RA was the last child of Rasulullah \ufdfa to pass away.<\/p>\n<p>The death of Fatimah RA was a great blow especially to the Muslims of that era. There was no limit to the pain and grief of the noble companions present in Madinah at that time. All the inhabitants of Madinah were affected by this loss, especially the Sahabah RA who understood that the last biological trace of Rasulullah \ufdfa is now no more. Now, the only trace of Rasulullah \ufdfa that remained was the pure wives \u2013 the Ummahat al Mu\u2019minin. In this state, it was the desire of everyone to attain the honour of participating in the janazah of the beloved daughter of Rasulullah. The scholars write that Fatimah passed away between Maghrib and \u2018Isha\u02be. In this short span of time, those who were present all gathered.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Ghusl of Fatimah RA and the Service of Asma\u02be bint \u2018Umays RA<\/strong><br \/>\nPrior to leaving this world, Fatimah RA bequeathed Asma\u02be bint \u2018Umays RA to give her ghusl after she passes away with the help of Ali RA. Accordingly, Asma\u02be bint \u2018Umays RA arranged her ghusl with other women like Salma, the wife of Abu Rafi\u2019 who is the slave of Rasulullah \ufdfa, Umm Ayman, etc. RA. Ali overlooked the entire ghusl. [Usd al Ghabah vol. 5 pg. 478]<\/p>\n<p>Some narrations concerning the bequests of Fatimah RA regarding her ghusl are totally unreliable. As a result, the scholars have left it out.<\/p>\n<p>The Janazah Salah of Fatimah \u0631\u0636\u064a \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0646\u0647\u0627<br \/>\nAfter her ghusl and kafn was complete came the moment of her janazah salah. Abu Bakr and \u2018Umar and other Sahabah RA gathered. Abu Bakr RA told Ali RA to lead the salaah. In response, Ali RA said that in front of the khalifah of Rasulullah \ufdfa, I cannot go forward to perform the janazah. Only you have the right to perform the janazah, hence step forward and perform it. Accordingly, Abu Bakr RA stepped forward and performed the janazah salaah of Fatimah RA with four takbir\u2019s while everyone followed. This has been mentioned by scores of authors with reliable references.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Burial of Fatimah \u0631\u0636\u064a \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0646\u0647\u0627<\/strong><br \/>\nAfter the janazah salaah was complete, Fatimah RA was taken to Jannat al Baqi\u2019 and buried at night according to the general narrations.

It is written in Nasab Quraysh that Hasan RA was born in the middle of Ramadan 3 A.H while Hussain RA was born in Sha\u2019ban 4 A.H. [Nasab Quraysh pg. 24, 25] Fatimah RA had two daughters &#8211; Zainab bint Ali and Umm Kulthum bint Ali RA. Some scholars have recorded another daughter \u2013 Ruqayyah RA. However, according to the accepted view, she only had 2 daughters. Fatimah RA named her daughters after her sisters so that their remembrance remains fresh in her home. Umm Kulthum bint \u2018Ali RA was married to Umar RA in 17 A.H whereas Zainab bint \u2018Ali RA married Abdullah ibn Jafar Tayyar RA.
