About this Book
The dignity and position of Hazrat Zahra (AS) is not limited to being the daughter of the Prophet (S) and the wife of Hazrat Ali (AS), although both are a great honor, she is according to reliable hadiths among Shiites and Sunnis (mentioned in this book) included in the verse of purification (Surah Ahzab Verse 33) in which Allah emphasizes his will to cleanse and purify ((Ahl al-Bayt)) from any kind of spiritual pollution (sin and error in discerning the truth)). In the virtues of Hazrat Zahra (AS), there are also many hadiths from the Prophet (S) mentioned in Shia and Sunni sources.
A prophet who does not say anything contrary to the truth according to the Qur'an, has said statements about the position (rank) and description of Hazrat Zahra (AS) that cannot be attributed to childish interests in any way. The proofs of these hadiths are given in this book through Shia and Sunni.
Understanding the way of life, speech, and behavior of Hazrat Zahra (AS) to the extent that it has reached us through history and hadith is essential and a guide for all Muslims for the following reasons.
1 - Since the deep love (Mawaddat) towards “Thawi al-Qurba” is emphasized in the Quran (verse 23 of Surah Shuri) and Hazrat Zahra (AS) is included in them according to definitive evidence, therefore knowing the spiritual position and also the behavior and Her speech will root and strengthen this love.
2- According to the reliable hadiths mentioned in this book by Sunni sources, the Prophet(S) said that Fatimah's satisfaction is my satisfaction and her displeasure is my displeasure, and this is one of the reasons that Her way and approach match the true and Prophet's (S) approach and should be a role model and guide for Muslim men and women.
3 - In the events after the death of the Prophet (S), disputes arose among Muslims, which continued throughout the history of Islam.
Historical records show that Hazrat Zahra (S) condemned the majority method in a detailed sermon, the text of which is in the book, and emphasized the correct method in many cases, including in the presence of the Caliph and the Muslim community. In this way, She suffered mental and physical hurts, which is recorded in history and the evidence is presented in this book. Since Hazrat Zahra (S) is subject to purification verse and her work is the standard of truth, therefore, her positions and arguments are a means of recognizing right from wrong and correct from incorrect.
This book is written based on research in Shia and Sunni sources and to get to know about the position of Hazrat Zahra (AS) from the perspective of the Qur'an, Prophet and history, as well as Her way of life, speech and behavior, also Her directions in the events happened after the death of the Prophet (S) is valid and useful.
