Fatimah

 or Fatima

(born c. 605, Mecca, Arabia—died 633, Medina) Daughter of Muhammad and the object of veneration in Shi'ite Islam. In 622 she emigrated with her father from Mecca to Medina, where she married his cousin 'Ali. Their sons, Hasan and al-Husayn ibn 'Ali, are considered by Shi'ites to be the rightful inheritors of the tradition of Muhammad. Fatimah's marriage was unhappy, but she and her husband were reconciled by the Prophet, and she cared for her father in his last illness (632). She clashed with his successor, Abu Bakr, over property and died a year later. Later tradition added to the majesty of her life, and the Fatimid dynasty derived its name from hers.

The Shiite imams and many Muslim dynasties, including the Idrisids, Fatimids, and the Saadi and Filali sharifs of Morocco, traced their ancestry to Fatima and her husband, Muhammad’s cousin, the caliph Ali.
