He, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, used to maintain his relations by giving her gifts:
‘Ali ibn Abu Taalib said: “The Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, gave me an outfit made of silk, so I came out wearing it. The Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said: “O Ali, I did not give this to you for you to wear! Make it into head covers for the Faatimahs.”
An-Nawawi (a scholar) said: “The plural of Faatimah refers to: Faatimah the daughter of the Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, ‘Ali’s mother Faatimah bint Asad, and Faatimah the daughter of (his uncle) Hamzah.
