Question:

Who was the eldest daughter of the Noble Prophet ﷺ?

Answer:

The eldest daughter of the Noble Prophet ﷺ was Sayyidah Zaynab رضي الله عنها.

❀ Ḥāfiẓ Ibn ʿAbd al-Barr رحمه الله (463 AH) states:

كانت زينب أكبر بناته صلى الله عليه وسلم، لا خلاف أعلمه فى ذلك إلا ما لا يصح ولا يلتفت إليه

Sayyidah Zaynab رضي الله عنها was the eldest daughter of the Noble Prophet ﷺ. To my knowledge, there is no difference of opinion in this matter, except for a few reports that are unauthentic and unworthy of consideration.
