The Holy Prophet had already informed every one of the members of his Ahlul-Bait, every calamity that would befall them and the treacherous course the people would adopt after him with regard to his family. The Holy Prophet had informed particularly about the calamities that would befall Husain and the details of the gruesome massacre at Karbala.

To Ali the Holy Prophet had already said that he was seeing Ali with his (Ali's) beard drenched with the blood of his (Ali's) head, in the Mosque of Kufa. Fatema had already foretold even her handmaid Fizza about her departure. She was informed by the Holy Prophet about her stay in the world after him. Ali even used to point out to Abdur Rahman ibne Muljim as his assassin, when there was no apparent sign of ibne Muljim entertaining any idea of killing Ali.

Days before his martyrdom, Ali had been continuously informing his family about his destin- ed departure and had already given the details of his funeral and the location of the place of the burial. Hasan knew his end and had advised Husain to be patient against the atrocious behaviour of the people and not to insist upon his burial besides his grandfather the Holy Prophet when it will be resisted and prevented.

Husain's martyrdom was already prophecied by the Holy Prophet with all the details of the Tragedy. The Holy Prophet had even given a handful of a mysterious dust to Umme Salema his wife, saying that it was the dust of the plain of Karbala where Husain will be martyred and when Husain would be martyred, the dust would turn into blood, and it happened so.

it is reported that Fatema before her departure, called her daughter Zainab to her and willed to her that on the day when Husain would ask her for some torn clothes, it will be the last departure of Husain from her (Zainab), then to kiss Husain on her behalf on Husain's throat on which will pass the sword of Shimar the assassin.

Fatema again called Husain to her and willed to him, that before his ultimate separation from her (Zainab) to kiss on her behalf, on the two sides of her (Zainab's) arms on which will be tied the ropes when the ladies of the camp will be taken captives by the Yazidian forces. Ali's Regard for Fatema ALl's REGARD FOR Fatema was the same as was the regard of the Holy Prophet for Lady Khadija.

Until the life of Lady Khadija, the Holy Prophet did not accept the hand of any other woman and likewise until the life of Fatema, Ali did not marry any other woman.
