Umal Baneen S.A

Hazrat Fatima bint-e-Hazm bin Khalid 

13th Jamadi-us-Sani - the death (yearly recognition or celebration) of Hazrat Fatima bint-e-Hazm bin Khalid (also known as Umm-ul-Baneen) - the wife of Imam Ali(a.s.) and mother of Hazrat Abbas(a.s.) 

Hazrat Fatima binte Hazam bin Khalid Ibn-e-Rabi'e Ibn-e-Amer Kalbi belonged to the group of people of Banu Kilah, which was one the highest-quality families among the Hashimites and famous for the bravery and bravery of its warriors. 

She was born in 5 A.H. Some years after the (dying or suffering a lot rather than giving up what you believe in) of Hazrat Fatima Zahra(s.a.), Imam Ali(a.s.) expressed his want to his brother Aqil bin Abi Talib(a.s.) to marry a women of a brave and warrior tribe. Hazrat Aqeel was a very full of knowledge in tribe (study of the history of a person's family) and he immediately proposed the name of Hazrat Fatima binte Hazam bin Khalid and the marriage happened soon after. 

Much earlier during 8 A.H., Imam Ali(a.s.) had been given the prediction by Predictor of the futureMohammad(sawaw) of a brave son who would be (someone who dies or suffers a lot rather than gives up what he or she believes in)ed next to with his brother Imam Hussain(a.s.) on the day of Ashura. Eversince then, Imam Ali(a.s.) had been waiting for the birth of that son which came inHazrat Abbas(a.s.). 

Hazrat Umm-ul-Baneen came to the house of Imam Ali(a.s.) knowing very well that before her the chief of the women of paradise, Hazrat Fatima Zahra(s.a.) was living in that house. She served Imam Ali(a.s.) in the same manner as Hazrat Umm-e-Salma had served the Holy Predictor of the future(sawaw) after the end of Hazrat Khadija(a.s.). Immediately stepping in the house, shepromised herself to act as a slave of the children of Hazrat Fatima(s.a.). Her honesty was much respected by the children of Hazrat Fatima(s.a.) that they always gave her a high status and respect. 

Fatima Binte Hazam was a very skillful and cultured lady, and bore Hazrat Ali's four sons, Abbas, Abdullah, Jafer and Usman. The meaning of 'Ummul Baneen' is 'Mother of Sons'. All of her sons were (someone who dies or suffers a lot rather than gives up what he or she believes in)ed along with Imam Husain. After their (dying or suffering a lot rather than giving up what you believe in), she requested people not to call her 'Ummul Baneen' ever again. When Imam Husain(A.S.) was leaving Madinah for Iraq Hadrat Ummul Baneen asked her four sons, Hadrat Abbas(A.S.), Abdulla, Ja'far and Usman to sacrifice their lives in the holy and untouchable cause of Imam Husain(A.S.). 

On 10th Muharram 61 A.H.,the day of (dying or suffering a lot rather than giving up what you believe in) of Imam Husain(a.s.) and his 72 faithful companions at the battlefield of Karbala when Hadrat Umme Salamah saw that the earth in the bottle given to her by the Holy Predictor of the future(sawaw) had turned into blood she raised the cry of "Ya Husain" Ya Husain" and declared that Imam Husain(a.s.) has been (someone who dies or suffers a lot rather than gives up what he or she believes in)ed according to the prediction predicted to her by the Holy Predictor of the future(sawaw) about the (dying or suffering a lot rather than giving up what you believe in) of Imam Husain(a.s.). 
Then Ummul Baneen gathered women of Madinah in her house and all cried for the (dying or suffering a lot rather than giving up what you believe in) of Imam Husain(a.s.).This was the first ever Majlis conducted after the (dying or suffering a lot rather than giving up what you believe in)of Imam Husain(a.s.). Ummul Baneen had such honesty toward the Holy Predictor of the future'schild/outcome that she loved Imam Hussain(a.s.) more than her own children. A feeling which was from the bottom of her heart. It was to the extent that when she received the news stating the (dying or suffering a lot rather than giving up what you believe in) of her four children, she said: "Tell me about Hussain (A.S.)" and when she received the news of Imam Hussain (A.S.)'s(dying or suffering a lot rather than giving up what you believe in) she said: "All of the arteries of my heart are torn. May all of my children and what ever that exists under this blue heaven bethrown away in exchange for the sake of Imam Hussain (a.s.). 

The First Noha Recitor of the (dying or suffering a lot rather than giving up what you believe in) of Imam Hussain(a.s.) 
After the arrival of Imam Sajjad(a.s.) and Hazrat Zainab(s.a.) in Madinah Hadrat Ummul Baneen used to gather women in her house and used to narrate them how Imam Husain(a.s.) and his companions were (someone who dies or suffers a lot rather than gives up what he or she believes in)ed by Yazidi forces. 

Hadrat Ummul Baneen was a great poet and she is considered as the first Noha (sad complaintpoetry) and marsia speaker for the (dying or suffering a lot rather than giving up what you believe in) of Imam Husain(a.s.).She used to visit regularly the famous Jannat al-Baqi cemetery in Madinah and say her Nohas in a very sad voice that everybody present there used to cry in a bad or angry way. Her poetry on the events of Karbala are recorded in the book talked about below. 

She changed the Jannat al-Baqi cemetery in Madinah as "the Centre of Azadari of Imam Husain(a.s.)". The Nohas said by Hadrat Ummul Baneen for the (dying or suffering a lot rather than giving up what you believe in) of Imam Husian(a.s.) are recorded in history and are considered as masterpieces in Arabic books. 

It is recorded in historical accounts that Hazrat Ummul Baneen died on 13th Jamadi us-Sani 64 A.H. and was buried in the Jannat al-Baqi cemetery in the holy city of Madinah.
