Grave of Sayyeda Fatima (as)

Question:

Asakwrwbk Shaykh Gibril,

May Allah swt give you long long life with MSH to see Mahdi (as) .

I have a Request to know  regarding the grave of  Sayyeda Fatima bint-e-Nabi (sallal lahu alaihis salam) Is it in Jannat ul Baqi or near the Grave of RasoolAllah (saw)? Or there’s a difference in opinions.

Answer:

Salam alaykum, Amin and you also.

There is agreement she was buried in Baqi` but disagreement as to the exact location there. Ibn Sa`d in al-Tabaqat al-Kubra narrates with his chains that she was buried in Zawiyat Dar Aqil in al-Baqi`, as opposed to being buried near the Baqi` mosque where they would perform their janaza prayers. The alternate version that she was buried between the Prophet’s pulpit and the house of `A’isha is a forgery. Allah knows best.
