From his guidance with his daughters is that he, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, would try to cheer them up:

‘Aa’ishah continued, “I have never seen happiness so soon after sadness and I asked her what he said. Faatimah replied, ‘I cannot reveal the secret of the Messenger of Allah.’ After the Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, died, I asked her again. She said: ‘He first told me: “Gabriel used to read the Quran with me once every year, and he read it with me twice this year. I think that means my time is near, and you will be the first of my family to follow me.” When I cried, he, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, whispered to me: “Are you not pleased to be the leader of the women of Paradise, or the believing women?” I smiled when he said that.’”
