I have a good feeling about my Christian fellow countrymen & women

We like Christians and feel an affection and friendship for them. Christians helped their Muslim compatriots during the Revolution and the Imposed Iran-Iraq War. I witnessed firsthand how the Christians used their technical power in serving the war and defending their home and homeland along with their other compatriots against the invading enemy. Iranian Christians are not considered to be outsiders in the Islamic Republic of Iran and they are indeed part of the great nation of Iran. I too have a good feeling about my Christian fellow countrymen and women.

Lady Fatima (pbuh): An outstanding figure in social & political spheres

Lady Fatima (pbuh): An outstanding figure in social & political spheres

Lady Fatima Zahra was an outstanding figure in her political and social characteristics to such an extent that all distinguished women of the world who struggle for religion can learn from the short, brilliant life of this woman who spent her entire childhood in the arms of a father [Prophet Muhammad] who was fighting for a great, unforgettable global cause. [Jan. 16, 1990]

Vastness of the existence of a Muslim woman can be seen in character of Lady Fatimah Zahra (pbuh)

Vastness of the existence of a Muslim woman can be seen in character of Lady Fatimah Zahra (pbuh)

Lady Fatimah Zahra (pbuh) was a woman, an Islamic woman at the highest level. That is, she was at the level of a leader. This same woman could have been a prophet in terms of her virtues, merits, and level in existence. Nonetheless, this same woman was a mother, a wife, and a housewife. You see, these things must be understood.

The Prophet’s (pbuh) behavior shows us Lady Fatimah Zahra’s (pbuh) status

The Prophet’s (pbuh) behavior shows us Lady Fatimah Zahra’s (pbuh) status

Lady Fatimah Zahra (pbuh) was the dignified daughter of the Prophet (pbuh). She was a girl whose hand the Prophet used to kiss and for whom the Prophet would stand up when she entered. Fatimah Zahra’s (pbuh) home was the last place the Prophet (pbuh) would visit before he would go on any trip, and he would leave for his trips from there. And whenever he returned from a trip, the first place he would visit and say hello was Fatimah Zahra’s (pbuh) home. She was such a daughter.
