Fatimah tuz Zahrã (R.A.)
Madinah
Mecca
The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)
Fatimah (R.A.) was youngest in age of all her sisters but highest in grades. She was dearest to her father of all his daughters. He once said, “Fatimah is like soul and heart to me.” once, he said, “Fatimah will be the leader of the women in Paradise.” he further said, “What troubles Fatimah troubles me as well.”
It was the sixth year of Prophethood and Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) had launched his preaching mission but his own clan were impeding in his way. The people of the Quraysh were trying every trick to trouble him. One day while he was performing Salãh in the Haram, on the instigation of the pagans of Mecca, Aqabah ibn Moeet brought the entrails of a camel and placed it on his neck whilst he was prostrating. Someone told Fatimah (R.A.) who was then just six years old. She came running and removed the stuff and cursed the non-believers. She, at such an early age beheld the tribulations and torments Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) was being subject to.
Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) awarded her the title of ‘lady of Paradise’.
It has been reported that Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) once said, “On the Day of Resurrection a voice will be heard saying ‘ lower you heads, Fatimah bint Muhammad is being escorted along,’ then Fatimah will cross the pathway to Paradise in a flash leading seventy thousand Hoors (heavenly women).”
Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) confided only to Fatimah (R.A.) during his last days that he would die of his illness. She wept to hear that but Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) whispered to her that she would follow him which brought delight on her face and she smiled. Rasulullah’s (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) beloved wives pressed her much to disclose that secret, but she didn’t. She revealed it, however after his demise.
A Flower is Born
On that day a heavenly delegation descended to the house of Rasul and Khadijah,
With a rose from heaven - a gift for their dedication to the religion,
A child whose praiseworthy qualities would be mentioned constantly by the creatures,
One whose pleasure would earn the source the blessings of Allah,
And whose displeasure would earn its source His wrath,
Our source of hope, the lady of matchless faith and features,
The noble Batoul, for Imam Ali the only worthy match,
For whose hand in marriage, the Quraysh would treasures fetch.
She, who was destined to be the mother of the Hasanayn,
The lady of the family which remains faithful to Allah in all the tests,
The mistress of the ladies of the heavens and the earth,
The one whose aura lit up the heavens when she prayed,
A radiant lady of light, a daughter of noble birth and upbringing,
A book of lessons in true submission and piety,
The scented path leading to the ark of salvation and felicity,
For all believers, the epitome of modesty and chastity,
And for all ladies - a role model for their societal duties.
Four worthy ladies from heaven did descend,
To help bring this child whose position with Allah is praised,
The mother of all, Hawa, whose children through Zahra would be saved, and
Um Kulthum, Musa (as)’s sister who braved the Pharaoh’s scrutiny,
Accompanied by lady Maryam, the mother of Prophet Isa’ the anointed,
With Aasiyah - the strong believer - from heaven were appointed.
Amidst a shower of blessings and salutations from the heavens,
The time has come to give the Prophet congratulations,
And Satan groans as his well laid evil plans are torn,
For the heavenly princess, gracious Zahra has been born.
