\nNarrated `Aisha:\n \n\nOnce Fatima came walking and her gait resembled the gait of the Prophet (ﷺ) . The Prophet (ﷺ) said, \n"Welcome, O my daughter!" Then he made her sit on his right or on his left side, and then he told her \na secret and she started weeping. I asked her, "Why are you weeping?" He again told her a secret and \nshe started laughing. I said, "I never saw happiness so near to sadness as I saw today." I asked her \nwhat the Prophet (ﷺ) had told her. She said, "I would never disclose the secret of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)." When \nthe Prophet (ﷺ) died, I asked her about it. She replied. "The Prophet (ﷺ) said: 'Every year Gabriel used to \nrevise the Qur'an with me once only, but this year he has done so twice. I think this portends my \ndeath, and you will be the first of my family to follow me.' So I started weeping. Then he said. 'Don't \nyou like to be the chief of all the ladies of Paradise or the chief of the believing women? So I \nlaughed for that."\n
