Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "An angel came from the heaven who had never before come to visit me. He sought permission from Allah Almighty to visit me, and he gave me glad tidings, telling me that Fatimah will be the leader of the women of my Ummah."
Imam al-Tabarani recorded this narration, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih, except for Muhammad bin Marwan al-Dhuhli; Ibn Hibban declared him thiqah (trustworthy).
