10th Safar - Wafat of Bibi Sakina Bint Al Husayn (as) - The Young Hashimite Princess
Name: Rukaiyya (also known as Sakina)
Father: Imam Husayn-bin-Ali-bin-Abu Talib (A.S)

In the Arab world, the youngest daughter of Imam Hussain(a.s.)(a.s.) is know as Bibi Rukkaya(a.s.) whereas she is know as Bibi Sakina)(a.s.) in rest of the Islamic World. We will refer to her as Bibi Sakina(a.s.). Bibi Sakina (as) was the youngest daughter of Imam Husayn (A.S). Sakina is a derivative of "Sakoon" meaning "Peace". Imam Husayn (A.S) used to pray for a daughter in his night prayers (Salatul Layl), a daughter who would give him peace, and Allah (SWT) granted him his wish and blessed him with Bibi Sakina (AS). Bibi Sakina (as) was the most Beloved Daughter of Imam Husayn (A.S) and She used to sleep on His chest every night. She was a lively child, full of love and happiness. Being the Daughter of the Holy Imam (as), She was different from other children of Her age in many ways. She was very religious and enjoyed reading the Holy Quran and never missed Her Prayers. From a very early age, She took great care to make sure that her head and face were properly covered when in public.
