SAYINGS OF THE CHIEF OF THE WOMEN OF THE WORLD-SAYYIDA FATIMA ZAHRA (SA)
Sayyida Fatima Zahra (s.a.) was
the beloved daughter of the
Chief of Prophets the Noble
Messenger (s.a.w.a.s.), who
said, “Fatima is a part of me”.
A part has all the qualities and
the characteristics of the whole
whose part it is!
Her sayings are reproduced
below:
If fasting cannot prevent a
person’s tongue, ears, eyes and
limbs from committing sins then
what is the use of such fast?
The best thing for a woman is
that she does not look at a
na’mahram male nor a na’mahram
male looks at her.
A woman is closest to her Lord
during the time when she is at
her home (and busy with her
house work and children).
The best of you is the one whose
treatment (with people) is the
most moderate (and
affectionate), and the worthiest
of them are those who behave
graciously (and honorably) with
their wives.
Three things are dear to me from
your world:
Recitation of (the Glorious)
Qur’an
Looking at the face of (the
Noble) Prophet (s.a.w.a.s.)
Giving away in the way of
God
Indeed, after the event of
Ghadir Khum, Almighty God has
left neither a single excuse nor
claim for anyone to deny the
Vilayat (leadership) of Ali.
Indeed, fathers of this Ummah
are Prophet Muhammad
(s.a.w.a.s.) and Ali (a.s.), and
if the Ummah willfully obeys
them, then its deficiencies will
be cured and it will be saved
from eternal punishment ……And
when they are followed then
eternal blessings will descend
upon the Ummah.
The one who recites Surahs Hadid,
Wa’qia and Rahman (of the
Glorious Qur’an) is recognized
in Heavens and the earth as a
resident of Paradise.
Allah assigned Faith for you as
a purification from polytheism,
Prayers as being free from
pride, Alms-Zakat as a
refinement of the soul and
increase of the sustenance,
Fasting for placing sincerity.
Hajj as a cause of strength in
the religion (of Islam), Justice
as means of harmonization of
hearts, Our obedience as a
source of organization of
(Islamic) community.
Our master ship as a protection
from dispersion, Holy struggle
as a glory of Islam, Patience as
a means of absorbing rewards
(from Allah).
Enjoining right and forbidding
wrong as a means of improvement
of common people, Doing goodness
to the parents as a barrier for
the Wrath (of Allah)
Strengthening blood kinship as a
cause of increase in population
and power, Blood money as
prevention of blood sheds (a
security of lives), Fulfillment
of promise as an extension of
forgiveness.
Hindering from defrauding in
scales and measures as a means
against deficiencies,
Discouragement of drinking wine
(alcoholic liquors) as a cause
of purification from
abominations.
Avoiding from accusation as a
curtain before the curse of
Allah, Abandoning theft for the
protection of modesty of self,
Prohibition of polytheism as
sincerity in servitude to Him
and Lordship of the world.
