Ayyami Fatimiyyah

The mourning days for the daughter of the Prophet Muhammad known as “Ayyami Fatimiyyah” according to two different historical traditions about the date of her death. The first date of death is 13th Jamadi Awwal, and the second is 3rd Jamadi Thani. The mourning days held before and after these dates are called respectively – the first mourning of Fatima and the second mourning of Fatima. According to the tradition passed down to us from Imam Sadiq, the daughter of the Prophet of Islam Fatima Zahra died 75 days after the death of the Prophet on the 13th Jamadi Avval. According to another tradition, Fatima passed away on Tuesday 3rd Jamadi Thani, 95 days after the death of the Prophet, so Muslims observe both dates as mourning.
