Is it mentioned in the Prophetic biography that Fatimah al-Zahra was bewitched, causing Ali to dislike her and want to marry another, and if so, how was the magic broken and is it related to her anklet?
The claim that Fatimah, the Prophet's daughter, was bewitched, causing Ali to dislike her and desire to marry another, is baseless and unfounded. It is established that Ali intended to marry the daughter of Abu Jahl, but the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prevented him. It is also established that Ali angered Fatimah and left their home, whereupon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) reconciled them. However, the notion that devils afflicted her with sorcery, causing her husband to change towards her, is false. They lived a good and happy life, as Allah Almighty says: "Whoever does righteousness, whether male or female, while he is a believer - We will surely cause him to live a good life, and We will surely give them their reward [in the Hereafter] according to the best of what they used to do."
