Jami at-Tirmidhi 3872 (Book 49, Hadith 272) #29534
The Closeness of Fatimah to the Prophet Muhammad

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad's daughter, Fatimah, and her close relationship with him. It highlights her intelligence and how she was treated by the Prophet.

Narrated 'Aishah: "I have not seen anyone closer in conduct, way, and manners to that of the Messenger of Allah in regards to standing and sitting, than Fatimah the daughter of the Messenger of Allah ". She said "Whenever she would enter upon the Prophet he would stand to her and kiss her, and he would sit her in his sitting place. Whenever the Prophet entered upon her she would stand from her seat, and kiss him and sit him in her sitting place. So when the Prophet fell sick and Fatimah entered, she bent over and kissed him. Then she lifted her head and cried, then she bent over him and she lifted her head and laughed. So I said: 'I used to think that this one was from the most intelligent of our women, but she is really just one of the women'. So when the Prophet died, I said to her: 'Do you remember when you bent over the Prophet and you lifted your head and cried, then you bent over him, then you lifted your head and laughed. What caused you to do that?' She said: 'Then, I would be the one who spreads the secrets. He told me that he was to die from his illness, so I cried. Then he told me that I would be the quickest of his family to meet up with him. So that is when I laughed'."

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks of a special bond between the prophet Muhammad and his daughter Fatima. It shows that he respected her greatly as he would stand up for her when she entered a room, kiss her on greeting, sit in whatever seat she offered him, and share secrets with her that no one else knew. He also showed his love for his daughter by telling her that she would be among those who would join him soonest after death - this made Fatima laugh despite being sad at hearing of his impending death. This hadith teaches us to show respect to our elders as well as our children; it also teaches us to be honest in our relationships even if it means sharing difficult news or secrets with them so they can prepare themselves for what lies ahead. Finally it reminds us of how important family bonds are - even if we are not related by blood we should still treat each other like family members because ultimately we all belong to one big human family!
