-asws in Medina on Friday, the 1 st of Shabaan, 6 AH ; 625AD. The divine baby -asws would not open her -asws eyes until she -asws was held by 3 year old Imam Hussain -asws and gazed adoringly at her brother -asws . Mola Hussain; “ Father -asws ,Allah -azwj the Almighty has gifted me -asws with a sister .”Imam Ali -asws and Syeda Fatima Zahra -asws began to weep on seeing them together.

Angel Jibra’il -asws came to the -saww and conveyed Allah’s -azwj glad tidings and gave the name that was to be hers -asws , and then he -saww began to weep. The Prophet -saww asked Angel Jibra’il -asws why he wept and he answered, “O Prophet of Allah -saww From early on in the life, this girl -asws will remain entangled in tribulations and trials in this world.

First she -asws will weep over your -saww separation from this world; thereafter she -asws will bemoan the loss of her mother -asws , then her father -asws , and then her brother Hasan -asws . After all this she -asws will be confronted with the trials of the land of Karbala and the tribulations of that lonely desert, as a result of which her -asws hair will turn grey and her -asws back will be bent .

“ The Prophet -saww took the blessed baby -asws and embraced her -asws while his tears were flowing on his -asws holy face. Syeda Fatima -asws asked him, ‘What makes you -asws cry? May Allah -azwj not make your eyes cry! ’ He -asws said to her -asws gently, ‘O Fatima -asws , Know that, after me -asws and after you -asws ,misfortunes and calamities would engulf this daughter of yours -asws . -saww named the baby ‘Zainab -asws ’ which means ‘father’s adornment’.

Imam Ali -asws and his -asws daughter -asws were so close, so germane attached that even the alphabetical distance of ‘Alif cannot set them apart. It is for this reason that in Arabic ‘Zainab’ is written without the alphabet ‘Alif in between.
