Performing Hazrat Fatima's (s.a) ablutions and burying her:

Salawat

 

When people of Medina realized Fatimahas (AS) martyrdom, they gathered in front of her house and waited for the burying ceremony. But it was announced that the ceremony was delayed. At night, when all people were asleep, Imame Ali (AS) started to wash Fatimahas (AS) body and shroud her, in absence of the people, who had oppressed her greatly, according to her will. When ablutions was finished, he told Imame Hassan (AS) and Imame Hosain (AS) (Who were only two little children at that time) to call some of Prophetas (PBUH) real companions whom Fatimah (AS) was satisfied with, to participate in the burying ceremony. (They were not more than 7 as it has been narrated). After they arrived; he said prayers and then buried her while his children were sad and were secretly crying for losing their other. When the burying ceremony ended, he turned to Prophetas (PBUH) shrine and said:

 

   "Regards to you, O! the messenger of Allah! From me and your daughter, who has reposed besides you, and has joined you within a little time. O Prophet (PBUH)! I have lost my patience in separation from your beloved and I have lost my self-control. We are from Allah and will return to him. Your daughter will inform you how she was oppressed by your community. Ask her what has happened, because it hasn't passed a lot and you haven't been forgotten yet."

 

   Today, after passing many years, still her shrine is hidden and nobody knows where it is located. Muslims, and specially Shiahs, wait for

Imame Mahdias

(AJ) reappearance. He is the Savior and is the eleventh child of Fatimahas (AS) progeny. He will show us his mother's shrine and will eradicate oppression in the world.
