"Once the Prophet was in the state of prostration, 'Uqbah bin Abi Mu'ait came and
brought the intestines of a camel and threw them on the back of the Prophet. The
Prophet did not raise his head from prostration till his daughter Fatima RAh came
and removed those intestines from his back." (Bukhari)

Once Fatima RA complained to the Prophet PBUH that Ali was planning to marry
another woman, on hearing that the Prophet said,
"Fatima RAh is a piece of my flesh, who so causes her anger, causes my anger."
(Agreed)
Ali RA did not marry another woman during Fatima's RA lifetime.
She and her family were among the Ahl al-Kisa, [people of the mantle] It is
narrated that once the Prophet sheltered Ali, Fatima RAh and his grandsons
under his cloak 'A'ishah Narrated, One day the Prophet came out afternoon
wearing a black cloak (upper garment or gown; long coat), then al-Hasan Ibn 'Ali
came and the Prophet accommodated him under the cloak, then al-Husayn came
and entered the cloak, then Fatima RAh came and the Prophet entered her
under the cloak, then 'Ali came and the Prophet entered him to the cloak as well.
Then the Prophet recited:
"Verily Allah intends to keep off from you every kind of uncleanness O' People of
the House (Ahlul-Bayt), and purify you a perfect purification.”
(Ahzab 33:33). (Sahih Muslim)
The Prophet loved Fatima RAh RA a lot; "Jami bin Omair reported that he went to
his aunt 'A'ishah and asked her who among the people was dearest to the
Apostle of Allah. She said, "Fatima RAh" and when questioned about the men,
she said, "Her husband." (Tirmidhi)
Whenever he went on a journey he came to her first and whenever he returned,
he returned to her first.
Whenever she visited him, the Prophet would stand up and kiss her; take her by
hand and make her sit in the place where he was sitting. She would do the same
when the Prophet came to her; she would stand up and welcome him with joy
and kiss him.

Fatima RA did all her house hold chores; she often had blisters on her hands
because of using millstone. Once she complained about them to the Prophet and
asked him to give her a servant, he refused and said to her,
"May I inform you of something better than that? When you go to bed, recite
'Subhan Allah' thirty three-times, 'Alhamdulillah' thirty-three times, and 'Allah-u-
Akbar' thirty-four times." (Sahih Bukhari)
Before his death when the Prophet told Fatima RA about his impending death
she cried, however she was very happy when he told her that she would be
joining him soon. Fatima RA had a strong resemblance to the Prophet in speech,
conversation and manners. She died six months after the Prophet PBUH She was
twenty nine years old at the time.
