Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !
(Fatwa: 1120/647/D=1432) It is not proved by Shariah that someone knows the time of his death by the angel of death. Unusually, if someone knows by revelation and he performs ghusl before death thinking that no need shall remain after death for ghusl, then the ghusl of after death shall not be annulled. And it shall be fardh on lives one to give him bath. I do not know about the said story of Hadhrat Fatimah (رضى الله عنها).
Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) knows Best
