Commemoration of Martyrdom of Janabe Fatima (a.s) at IIPS

Updated 18 May 2011

On 3rd Jamadiul Akhir, commemoration of shahadat of Janabe Fatima Zahra a.s. was held at IIPS at Sayyida Zainab, where teachers and students studying Arabic courses attended the majlis. The majlis was recited by Shaykh Firas Shibly who presented the tafsir of Sura al-Kawthar.

He said that the spread of the progeny of the Prophet Muhammad (SAWW) in all nooks and corner of the world was the Qur'anic answer to those who accused the Prophet of being without posterity, as his progeny is going to remain in abundance until the end of time. Allah had kept the survival of the progeny of the Prophet in the children of Imam Ali and Hazrat Fatima (peace be upon them) and this is going to be the source of abundant bounty and purity of guidance for humankind.
