Fatima Martyred
Thus after seventy-five or
ninety days after the departure of the Holy Prophet, as prophesied, the Holy
Lady passed away. But before breathing her last, she called Ali and desired
that none of those particularly a few ones, who had turned hostile to the House
of the Prophet and violated the will of the Apostle of God, should be informed
of her departure from this world, and that she should be quietly buried in the
darkness of the night.
Some reporters say that when the body was lowered into the grave, by Ali, in
the grave appeared the two hands of the Holy Prophet, with a voice addressing
Ali:- "Come on! Ali! Return thou the part of
mine, to me". It is said that Ali shedding tears responded to the voice
saying:-
"I am ashamed of thee O' Apostle of God,for I took Fatema from
thee sound in her body but I am now returning her unto thee rib-broken".
Thus the Holy Lady was the first of the martyrs among the Ahlul-Bait,
after the departure of the Holy Prophet.
It is now left to the intelligent ones of the readers to judge the position of
those who annoyed this holy one of God, (i.e., Lady Fatema)
under the apostolic announcements of the Holy Prophet and the verse of the Holy
Qur'an referred to above.
It is authentically reported that the Holy Lady once referring to her miserable
plight and the sorrowful life she had to lead, addressing her father, the Holy
Prophet, standing before his grave, said :- "Oh! Father dear! After thee,
fell on me such miseries that had they fallen on bright days, the bright days
would have turned into darkest nights.
The Holy Lady of Light left behind two sons and two daughters whose ages at the
time of her departing from them, were :-
Hasan about 8 years.
Husain
about 7 years.
Zainab
(daughter) about 6 years.
Umme Kulthoom (daughter) about 5 years.
