ABWA Official Website \u2013<\/strong> During a ceremony held in a remote area in western Kabul, Afghanistan, on the occasion of the martyrdom anniversary of Lady Fatimah al-Zahra (a.s.), the Head of the Assembly of AhlulBayt (a.s.) Lovers of Afghanistan delivered a speech about the personality of this noble lady of Islam and the hardships she endured.<\/p>\n

Hojat al-Islam Sayed Hussein Alemi Balkhi said in this ceremony, \u201cOne of the shared pints between Shiite and Sunni Muslims is Lady Fatimah al-Zahra (a.s.). This noble lady of Islam represents a commonality rather than a division between the two schools of thought. Our principles and those of our Sunni brothers are rooted in the Quran and Hadiths. Accordingly, there are numerous shared aspects, including Quranic verses concerning Lady Fatimah al-Zahra (a.s.).\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIn Shiite teachings, around 30 Quranic verses refer to Lady Fatimah al-Zahra (a.s.) and her virtues. Among them, five verses directly relate to her, leaving no doubt that these verses concern Lady Fatimah al-Zahra (a.s.), a belief shared by both Shiite and Sunni Muslims. For instance, Surah al-Kawthar, according to interpretations, is about Lady Fatimah al-Zahra (a.s.), through whom the progeny of the Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h) continued,\u201d Alemi Balkhi continued.<\/p>\n

The Head of the Assembly of AhlulBayt (a.s.) Lovers of Afghanistan stated, \u201cIn a Hadith from the Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h), he said: \u2018My daughter Fatimah is the leader of the women of the worlds, from the beginning to the end.\u2019 Four women in human history stand out as chaste and great, and the Prophet (p.b.u.h) emphasized that \u2018Fatimah (a.s.) is a part of me, the light of my eyes, and the fruit of my heart. Fatimah (a.s.) is my soul and spirit, and she is a heavenly woman in the form of a human\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n

Further in the ceremony, Hoja al-Islam Muhammad Akbari, Deputy of the Shiite Scholars\u2019 Council of Afghanistan, delivered a speech about the birth of Lady Fatimah al-Zahra (a.s.).<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen Lady Fatimah al-Zahra (a.s.) was in the womb of Lady Khadijah (a.s.), the Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h) said: \u2018Gabriel descended and informed me that this child is a girl. A blessed girl, chosen by God to be the mother of the Imams (a.s.), and through her, my lineage will continue among the Ummah\u2019.\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The Deputy of the Shiite Scholars\u2019 Council of Afghanistan added, \u201cWhenever the Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h) went on a journey, the last person he would bid farewell to was Fatimah al-Zahra (a.s.), and upon his return, the first person he would meet was Fatimah al-Zahra (a.s.).\u201d<\/p>\n

Referring to the kind treatment of the Prophet (p.b.u.h) toward Fatimah al-Zahra (a.s.), he noted: \u201cWhenever Fatimah al-Zahra (a.s.) entered the Prophet\u2019s home, he would rise from his place, kiss her hand, and seat her in his place. Similarly, when the Prophet (p.b.u.h) entered the home of Fatimah al-Zahra (a.s.), she would rise, kiss his father\u2019s hand, and seat him in her place.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOne day, the Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h) entered Fatimah al-Zahra\u2019s (a.s.) house and saw her wearing the simplest clothing, grinding flour with one hand while nursing her child with the other. Tears flowed from the Prophet\u2019s (p.b.u.h) eyes, and said: \u2018My daughter, endure the bitterness of this world for the sweetness of the Hereafter.\u2019 After the Prophet\u2019s (p.b.u.h) demise, Lady Fatimah al-Zahra (a.s.) spent her remaining days in constant grief until she fell ill,\u201d he narrated.<\/p>\n

Hojat al-Islam Fahimi, the founder of the Khatam al-Mursalin (p.b.u.h) School, also spoke during the event, addressing contemporary issues related to the defense of Islam and the hijab. \u201cToday, hundreds of statements are made in media and public forums against religion, the Quran, and Imam Mahdi (a.s.), but who is defending them? Unfortunately, under various pretexts, Islamic hijab is being attacked.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hojat al-Islam Fahimi also emphasized the necessity of observing hijab by women in western Kabul, stating, \u201cWe must defend religion, the Quran, and Islamic values because there are 27 Quranic verses about hijab, and it is a religious and legal matter.\u201d<\/p>\n
