Fatimah bint Muhammad

The youngest daughter of the Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) and Khadijah, and the only one of his children to outlive him. She married Ali ibn Abi Talib and was the mother of Hasan and Husayn, through whom the Prophet's line of descent continues.

Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) had seven children: three sons, al-Qasim, Abdullah and Ibrahim, who all died in childhood, and four daughters, Zaynab, Ruqayyah, Umm Kulthum and Fatimah. Six were born at Mecca to Khadijah bint Khuwaylid; Ibrahim to Mariya al-Qibtiyya. Only Fatimah outlived him.
