Reading Time: < 1 minute

It is written in Al-Isaabah that Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) gave Hazrat Sayyidah Faatimah (Radhiyallahu anha) a bedding, a leather pillow stuffed with the barks of the date palm, two grindstones and two leather waterbags as dowry.

In one narration four pillows are mentioned, and in another narration a bed is also mentioned.

In one narration it is stated that on the night of departure, the bedding was of sheep’s skin. It is possible that this was the bedding in the house of Hazrat Ali and it is also possible that Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) had given it as dowry.
