Fatimah bint Asad was the wife of Abu Talib and the mother of Hazrat Ali (R.A). She holds a unique distinction in Islamic history as she was the only woman to give birth inside the Holy Kaaba. She was among the early converts to Islam and the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) held her in very high regard, even shrouding her in his own shirt at her burial.
Fatimah bint Asad belonged to the Banu Hashim clan of the Quraysh tribe. She raised the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) in his childhood after the death of his mother Aminah and grandfather Abdul Muttalib, caring for him as her own son. The Prophet (PBUH) reportedly said that after his mother, Fatimah bint Asad was like a mother to him.
