In addition to seventeen daughters, various sources report that Ali had eleven or fourteen, or eighteen sons.{{Sfn|Lewis|2012}} His first marriage was to [[Fatima]], daughter of the [[Prophets and messengers in Islam|Islamic prophet]] [[Muhammad]], who bore Ali three sons, namely, [[Hasan ibn Ali|Hasan]], [[Husayn ibn Ali|Husayn]], and [[Muhsin ibn Ali|Muhsin]], though the last one is not mentioned in some sources.{{Sfn|Lewis|2012}} Muhsin either died in infancy,{{sfn|Buehler|2014|p=186}} or was miscarried after Fatima was injured during a [[Attack on Fatima's house|raid]] on her house to arrest Ali, who had withheld his pledge of allegiance from the first [[Rashidun Caliphate|Rashidun caliph]] [[Abu Bakr]] ({{Reign|632|634}}).{{sfn|Khetia|2013|p=78}} The first report appears in Sunni sources and the latter in Shia sources. Hasan and Husayn are recognized as the second and the third [[Imamate in Shia doctrine|Imams]] in [[Shia Islam]], their descendants being known as the [[Hasanids]] and the [[Husaynids]], respectively.{{Sfn|Daftary|2008}} They are revered by all [[Muslims]] as the progeny of Muhammad and honored by nobility titles such as [[Sharif]] and [[Sayyid]].{{sfn|Nasr|Afsaruddin|2023}} Ali and Fatima also had two daughters, namely, [[Zaynab bint Ali|Zaynab]] and [[Umm Kulthum bint Ali|Umm Kulthum]].{{Sfn|Huart|2012}} After the [[Burial of Fatima|death of Fatima]] in 632 [[Common Era|CE]], Ali remarried and had more children. Among them, the lineage of Ali continued through [[Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyya|Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiya]], [[Abbas ibn Ali]], and [[Umar ibn Ali|Umar al-Atraf]], their descendants were honored by the title [[Alawids|Alawi]] ({{Lit|of Ali}}). Respectively, they were born to [[Khawla al-Hanafiyya]], [[Umm al-Banin]], and Umm Habib bint Rabi'a (al-Sahba).{{Sfn|Lewis|2012}}
