Here is an Ahle Sunnah link for Bibi Zaineb bintu Ali (as

Allahumma Salli Ala Sayyidina Muhammadin Wa-Ala Ali Muhammadin Wa-Sabibi Wa-Sallim


Hazrat Imam Ali bin Husain Zain-ul-A'Abidin reported
that the very night of the following morning when my father was
assassinated I was ailing and my aunt Hazrat Zainab
was looking after me; suddenly my father called his colleagues inside his
tent. At that time the slave of Hazrat Abu Dharr Gheffari named Hawi was smearing the sword and my father was reciting the
following verses:

"O world! How deceitful friend thou are. How many people are killed day
and night by your hand. But the time does not spare any one and never
accepts compensation and everything is in the control of Allah. Every
living creature is aheading towards death."

Hazrat Imam Husain repeated these verses four times. My
heart was filled with grief. Tears were about to tumble down from my eyes
by I stopped them.

From the march of events Imam Husain's ailing son, Ali Zain-ul-A'Abidin
came to the conclusion that the calamity was inevitable. When Imam
Husain's sister, Sayyidah Zainab came to know about
it, she started shrieking and crying. Imam Husain tried to pacify her with
exhortation, "What is all this sister? I am afraid our faith and endurance
are overpowered by our passions and devilish forces." Sayyidah Zainab
replied how could she control herself when Imam Husain was killing himself with his own hands. Imam Husain
answered that such was Allah's Will. This reply added much to Sayyidah
Zainab's distress and she went out of control due to excessive grief.
Witnessing this, Imam Husain made a lengthy speech on
Sabr (patience and perseverance). He observed:

"Sister! Fear from Allah. Take solace from Allah's Mercy. Death is
destined for each and every living being. Even those living in heaven
cannot lead an eternal life. When every thing is mortal in this world, why
so much distress and grief with the thought of death. For every Muslim,
the life of the Holy Nabi provides the
perfect model. What does this model teach us? It teaches us to have
forbearance and perseverance. It also teaches us to rely on Allah and to
reconcile ourselves to the Will of Allah Ta'ala. We should not deviate
from that teaching."

Ya Hussain

Syeda Zainab's Dream In Her Childhood Predicting The Approaching Calamities

One day, when Syeda Zaynab was about five years old, she had a strange and terrible dream. A violent wind arose in the city and darkened the earth and the sky. The little girl was tossed hither and thither, and suddenly she found herself stuck in the branches of a huge tree. But the wind was so strong that it uprooted the tree. Syeda Zainab caught hold of a branch but that broke.

In a panic she grabbed two twigs but these too gave way and she was left falling with no support. Then she woke up. When she told her grand father, the beloved Prophet about this dream he wept bitterly and said,

"O my daughter. That tree is me who is shortly going to leave this world. The branches are your father Syedina Ali and your mother Syeda Fatima Zahra and the twigs are your brothers Syedina Hassan and Syedina Hussein They will all depart this world before you do, and you will suffer their separation and loss."
