(9th year of the Migration)
Umm Kulthum, who was the daughter of the Prophet and Hazrat Uthman’s wife, died in the 9th year of the Migration.[1] After she was washed and enshrouded, her janazah prayer was led by the Prophet himself.[2] After she was buried, he sat by the grave for a while. Meanwhile, some tears started to roll down his face.
Umm Kulthum was the second youngest daughter of the Prophet; Fatima was the youngest. Umm Kulthum became a Muslim when her mother, Khadija, became a Muslim.
Hazrat Uthman had no children from Umm Kulthum.[3]
