Marital life of Fatima portrays the marriage of Fatima, daughter of the Islamic prophet Muhammad, and Muhammad's cousin, Ali. Fatima (c. 605/15-632) and Ali (c. 600-661) were both significant figures in early Islam: Fatima has been compared to Mary, the mother of Jesus, especially in Shia Islam.[1][2] Muhammad is said to have regarded her as the best of women[3][4] and the dearest person to him.[5] Ali was the fourth of the Rashidun Caliphs and the first Shia Imam.[6] Muhammad is widely reported to have likened Ali's position in Islam to that of Aaron in Judaism.[7][8]
