Burial of Fatima is about the secret burial and the uncertainty in the resting place of Fatima, daughter of the Islamic prophet Muhammad, and wife of Ali, the fourth caliph after Muhammad and the first Shia Imam.[1] Fatima died in 11 AH (632 CE), within six months of Muhammad's death,[2][3] perhaps from her injuries.[2][4] Following her will, she was buried secretly at night.[5][6] Her exact burial place in Medina remains uncertain, though two possible locations are the al-Baqi' cemetery and her home.[3][7] In Shia sources, Fatima's wish for a secret burial is viewed as a sign of the disassociation of Muhammad's daughter with the Muslim community who largely failed to support her against Abu Bakr.[8]
