As for the age of Hazrat Faatimah (radhiyallahu \u2018anha) at the time of the nikaah, then there are two views. According to some \u2018Ulamaa, she was approximately fifteen years old, while other \u2018Ulamaa are of the opinion that she was nineteen years old.<\/p>\n<p>After Hazrat \u2018Ali (radhiyallahu \u2018anhu) proposed for Hazrat Faatimah (radhiyallahu \u2018anha), Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) came to her and said, \u201cHazrat \u2018Ali (radhiyallahu \u2018anhu) has proposed for you.\u201d However, on account of her very high level of hayaa, Hazrat Faatimah (radhiyallahu \u2018anha) felt shy to speak and verbally accept the proposal. Hence, she remained silent and did not object, through which Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) understood that she had accepted the proposal.<\/p>\n<p>When Hazrat \u2018Ali (radhiyallahu \u2018anhu) brought the four hundred and eighty dirhams to Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam), then Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) made arrangements for some perfume and essential household items to be purchased for Hazrat Faatimah (radhiyallahu \u2018anha).<\/p>\n<p>The trousseau of Hazrat Faatimah (radhiyallahu \u2018anha) was very simple. It consisted of a shawl, a leather pillow which was stuffed with date-palm fibers and grass, two grind-stones, one water skin and two utensils. Hazrat Faatimah (radhiyallahu \u2018anha) and Hazrat \u2018Ali (radhiyallahu \u2018anhu) would use the shawl as their bedding. After spreading it on the floor, they would sleep on half the shawl and then fold the other half over themselves as a blanket.<\/p>\n<p><em>(to be continued)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>(Sharhuz Zurqaani 2\/357-358, Majma\u2019uz Zawaa\u2019id #15208, #15210, #15211, Tabaqaat Ibnu Sa\u2019d 8\/16, Al-Targheeb wat-Tarheeb #2466 and Musnad Ahmed #643)<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The nikaah of Hazrat \u2018Ali (radhiyallahu \u2018anhu) and Hazrat Faatimah (radhiyallahu \u2018anha) occurred in the second year after Hijrah.
