All the children of the Prophet except Hazrat Ibrahim were born from the womb of Hazrat Khadijah. Hazrat Fatima was the youngest daughter.3 The appearance of Hazrat Fatima was similar to the Holy Prophet. According to Umm al-Mu'minin, Hazrat Aisha's habits, speech, tone of voice, sitting and standing were exactly like those of the Holy Prophet.4

at first He peace and blessings of Allah be upon him used to visit Masjid Nabvi, then visit Hazrat Fatima RA and lastly come to the home and met wives. 7
The initial training of Hazrat Fatimah was done by the Prophet himself and Hazrat Khadijah in addition to this, the first Muslim women were included in her training - her mother Hazrat Khadijah died in her childhood - under the tutelage of Hazrat Fatima bint Asad until 2 AH. Stay- In 2 Hijri, the Prophet (peace be upon him) married Hazrat Umm Salma, so he entrusted Hazrat Fatima to her training. Hazrat Umm Salma said: Hazrat Fatima was entrusted to me. She knew better than me.8 Sayyida Ayesha Siddiqa says, " Hazrat Fatima a distinguished person for all Muslims. Hazrat Fatima was a great jurist." Once the Holy Prophet (PBUH) called Hazrat Fatima RA and said some thing. When Hazrat Fatima said something in her ear, she cried, then when she spoke again in her ear, she laughed - Syed Aisha said that I asked Hazrat Fatima, what did the Messenger of Allah say in your ear that caused you to cry? Laughed and then he said something, did you cry? Hazrat Fatimah said that first you (PBUH) told me in my ear that I was close to death, I cried. Then I laughed. 9 Hazrat Fatimah was unique in grace and perfection and she used to remember the words of the Holy Prophet carefully. The Messenger of Allah said: "Fatima, the part of my body that displeases her, will displease me."10

If you want to imitate, then Maryam bint Imran, Kharijah bint Khuwaylid, Fatimah bint Muhammad Rasoolullah and Asiya wife of Pharaoh are sufficient for your imitation. It was narrated from Hazrat Aisha (RA) that after the Messenger of Allah (PBUH), whomever She was Hazrat Fatima.
Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) says that one day in the assembly of Hazrat Muhammad (peace be upon him) there was a question about what is the best thing for women - the companions kept asking questions among themselves, but the assembly would be dismissed without solving the problem. Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) asked and said to his wife. When this question came up today, which no one has answered yet, Sayyida Fatimah said, "This is the best thing for women

Hazrat Huzaifah narrates that a Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said that an angel who had never descended on earth before that night sought permission from his Lord to come to greet me and to give the glad tidings that Fatimah is one of the women of Paradise. He is the chief and Hasan and Hussain are the chiefs of all the youths of heaven. Hazrat Masoor bin Mukharama narrates that he heard the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) saying on the pulpit that Banu Hisham bin Mughirah has asked me for permission to marry his daughter to Hazrat Ali bin Abi Talib, so I will not give him permission but That Ali, the son of Abu Talib, would like to divorce my daughter because my daughter is a piece of me makes me suspicious - what hurts me is what hurts him.
It is narrated from Hazrat Masoor Bin Mukharama that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Hazrat Fatimah is a piece of me, what hurts me is what hurts her. When he used to come back, he used to visit Hazrat Fatima first.
I have not seen anyone better than Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) in the manners and manners of the Prophet Peace be upon him, the dignified manner in which he stood and sat, and

This angel had never descended to earth before that night. He asked permission from his Lord to greet me and he (the angel) gives me the glad tidings that Fatimah is the chief of the women of Paradise and Hasan and Hussain are the chiefs of the youths of Paradise.13
Even on many other occasions the Holy prophet said Fatima and her children are very dear to me and they are the part of my family. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) called Sayyidna Ali, Sayyida Fatima, Sayyidna Hasan and Sayyidna Hussain (may Allah be pleased with them) and said (putting them under his cloak): O Allah, these are my people (Ahl al-Bayt). 14 All the companion of the Prophet Peace Be Upon Him witnessed that Prophet loved Hazrat Fatima RA very much as one of the companion narrated about it.
In the same way Hazrat Masoor Bin Mukharama narrates, "The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Indeed, Fatima is a piece of my liver and I do not like anyone to hurt her, by Allah, the Most High! The daughters of the Messenger of Allah, may God bless him and grant him peace, and the daughters of the enemy of God, may not gather in the house of a person." Hadhrat Masoor bin Mukharama, may Allah be pleased with him, narrated, "He heard the Holy Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, say on the pulpit: Bani Hisham bin Mughira has asked for my permission to marry his daughter to Hazrat Ali Karamullah Rabiyyah. I do not allow them again, I do not allow them again. I do not allow them. And the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said: My daughter is a part of my body. "The pain of pain hurts me."15 It is narrated from Hazrat Masoor Bin Mukharama RA: "The Holy Prophet (PBUH) said: Fatimah (RA) is just a piece of my body. Whatever hurts her hurts me.16 On an other place one of the companion Hazrat Jami bin Umair Taymi says, "I came to the service of Hazrat Aisha along with my paternal aunt and asked: Who was the most beloved of the Holy Prophet (PBUH)?" Umm al-Momineen Sayyida Aisha (RA) said: Fatimah (RA). Asked: Of men? He, may God be pleased with him, said: Her husband, as far as I know, used to fast a lot and stay up a lot at night for worship.17 Hazrat Abdullah bin Abbas (RA) says, "The Holy Prophet (PBUH) drew four lines on the ground and said: Do you know what this is?" The Companions (RA) said: "Allah and His the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) knows better." Then the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "The women of Paradise are the best and these are as follow.

Umm Al-Momineen Hazrat Umm Salma (RA) narrates, "When Sayyida Fatima (RA) was suffering from her terminal illness, I used to take care of her. During this whole period of illness, as far as I could see, one morning he was a little better. Hazrat Ali went out to meet someone. Sayyid al-Kainat Radiyallahu Anha said: O mother! Bring water for my bath. I brought water. You took the best bath I've ever seen. Then say: Mother! Give me a new dress. I did the same and you lay down facing the Qibla. He put his hand under the blessed face and then said: Amma ji, I will die now. Hazrat Umm Salmi (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that when Hazrat Ali (May Allah be pleased with him) came, I told him everything.19

Hazrat Fatima (RA) never felt anxuiety and nor tired of acquiring knowledge, but she used to be courageous, courageous and diligent in teaching others about religious issues. One day a woman came to her and said: My mother is very old and she There has been a mistake in the prayer. She has sent me so that I can find out the problem with you. Hazrat Fatima Zahra (RA) answered her question, the lady came to ask the question for the second and third time and left after hearing her answer. She did this about ten times and every time she answered her question. The lady was embarrassed by the frequent comings and goings and said: Now I will not bother you. Hazrat Fatima (RA) said: Come again and find out the answers to your questions. No matter how many questions you ask, I will not be angry.
In the battle of Uhud, Hazrat Fatimah (peace be upon him) went with the women to the field of Uhud (Uhud is six kilometers away from Madinah). (Peace be upon him) had many injuries on his holy body. Hazrat Fatima (peace be upon him) used to clean the blood from the face of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him). When Hazrat Fatima Zahra (peace be upon him) saw that the blood was not stopping, she burned a piece of mat and burned it. Ash was applied to the wound, which stopped the blood, in the battle of Uhud, Hazrat Hamza Syed Al Shahada, the uncle of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) was martyred. After the battle, Hazrat Hamza's sister "Safiyya" along with Hazrat Fatimah (peace be upon him) came to his home.
Hazrat Fatima remained close to you even before the marriage and after the marriage. Your services in the field of jurisprudence are also Muslim; But there are not many of your traditions in Hadith Sharif. According to Qazi Abdul Samad Sarim, 18 traditions of Hazrat Fatima al-Zahra are mentioned in different books of hadith.
Six months after the death of the Prophet 8, on the 3rd of Ramadan, 11 AH, Mangaldar passed away. Asma bint Umays was sitting and when she asked the reason, she said that I am worried that the funerals of men and women are brought on cots in which the women are naked, although the body is wrapped in a shroud, but the size of the body (obesity) and leanness) reveals that I am worried because the whole life is certainly spent in a veil, but after death what will be happen of my veil. So Asmaa bint Umays said, O liver of the Messenger of Allah, I have seen a way of funeral of the women of Abyssinia. A round shape is formed on top of it, which does not reveal nakedness - Hearing this, his grief was lightened, so first the coffin was made on the funeral of Hazrat Fatima, then the funeral of Hazrat Zaneeb was carried out in the same way. And Hazrat Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, offered the funeral prayer, according to his will, the funeral was taken up after sunset and he was buried in Jannat al-Baqi.
There is some disagreement about the grave whether it is in Baqi or Dar Aqeel. And some believe that they should be buried in their homes. So the question was raised that it was your will to take care of the veil at the time of my funeral. According to the sects, you were at Salmi's house and you died there. 20

Hazrat Abd Allah bin Abbas (RA) narrates that the Prophet (PBUH) said: I am the scale of knowledge, Ali is its weight, Hasan and Husain are its ropes, Fatimah is its arm and my After all, Imams are the vertical bars (of the scale), through which the actions of those who love us and those who hate us will be weighed.21 Imam Abu Naeem narrated number of Ahdeeth in the favour Hazrat Fatima R.A which clearly show her dignity among the Muslim's women.

Imam Tabrani narrated from Abdullah bin Masood that it is narrated on the authority of Zarat Abdullah bin Masoud that the Holy Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: Indeed, Fatima protected her chastity in such a way that Allah, the Exalted, forbade her and her progeny from the Fire. It has been said.22 Conclusion

So during this period you showed perseverance. Some commentators have remembered you with the title of Khair Kathir. After the death of Narina, the daughter of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, Hazrat Fatima was the custodian of the shrine of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam. Allah Ta'ala continued the generation of Rasulullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam through him and his descendants were called Sadat. Briefly summarizing this discussion, it can be said that Hazrat Fatima's position and status is very high in Jansaran Islam and an office is needed to compile her personality and virtues. If this discussion is summed up briefly, then it will not be wrong to say that the life of Hazrat Fatimah (RA) on earth is a complete and exemplary mirror for all believers. Hazrat Fatima (may Allah be pleased with her) is the epitome of great qualities such as simplicity, purity, honesty, trust, honor, generosity, hospitality, steadfastness, loyalty, courage, respect, love, tolerance, forgiveness, and patience, which are not found in everyone. are found.
