She married ʿAli ibn Abi Talib and was the mother of al-Hasan, al-Husayn, Zaynab and Umm Kulthum. When she asked for a servant, the Prophet ﷺ taught her and ʿAli the tasbih before sleep instead.
She was the only one of his children to outlive him, and passed away about six months after him, in 11 AH.
