 The name of God, the most beneficent, the most merciful, all praise be to Him. The Creator and the Sustainer, I begin in His name. I begin in the name of Allah, and I send my peace and my blessings upon Muhammad and his holy progeny. And I send my condolences to the Imam of my time, Imam Al-Mahdi Al-Muntadar, may Allah hasten his reappearance. On the martyrdom of the tragic events, a Fatima to the Zahrae peace be upon her when they squeezed my Lady Fatima between the door and the nail. Our time is very limited and we want to go through the historical events that occurred. I narrated to you before that the attack on the house of my Lady Fatima was not one or two attacks but it was in fact three attacks followed by one attack after. It was three attacks plus one more. And we spoke about the Ummah of Rasulullah and about the weakness and how weak the Ummah of Rasulullah peace be upon him and his holy family was. This Ummah of Muhammad in which Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam says in Hadith that is agreed upon by all the schools that after me or Ummah my nation you will follow the footsteps of the Ummah before you of the nations before you foot by step, increment by increment. And when Hudayfah Ibn-ul-Yaman was asked or Aba Abdullah is hypocrisy today greater or was it worse at the time of Rasulullah peace be upon him and his holy family he said by Allah, by Allah hypocrisy today is greater because at the time of Rasulullah this hypocrisy and this hatred and this enmity towards Zihlul Bayt peace be upon them was inside. Today it's revealed it was not long after the passing away and the martyrdom of Rasulullah peace be upon him when the inqilab, when the revolt when the revolution happened they left they left the burial and the shrouding of Rasulullah's body and went to discuss worldly actions and desires and appointed a humanely appointed leader and when Ali was asked he told them do you want me to leave the shrouding of Rasulullah and talk nonsense amongst you and Abu Bakr and Abu Bakr do you know what he said when he was asked to come aid the Ahlul Bayt in shrouding Rasulullah he said you had Ali ibn Abi Talib you have your commander go go and let Ali ibn Abi Talib and the Ahlul Bayt deal with him there is a lot of history to narrate to you and I do not have the time to narrate the entire history so we will begin talking about the attacks the attacks that happen on my Fatima's house on my lady Fatima's house so please bear with me bear with me as we take this heart-wrenching journey while we speak about how these treacherous animals did to my lady Fatima and peace be upon him the first attack the first attack on the house of Fatima when Ali ibn Abi Talib, peace be upon him completed the burial and the shrouding of Rasulullah he had a group from Banu Hashim and from his companions in the house they were Al-Abbas, Al-Zubair, Al-Mighdad, Al-Talha and others they were in the house of Amir al-Mu'mineen, peace be upon him of course Umar ibn Al-Khattab found out about this jam'ah about this political stance in the house of Fatima because Fatima took a political stance against Abu Bakr and Umar's government she gave herself for the willy of Ali ibn Abi Talib when Umar heard about this he went to Abu Bakr and then he told Abu Bakr that they have gathered at the house of Ali to revolt against you and your government is still new your government is still weak then he told Umar to go to the house of Fatima they came and he said, pledge allegiance to Abu Bakr Umar came to the house of Fatima Al-Zubair took out his sword attempting to slash Umar but his sword was reached by Khalid ibn al-Waleed taken from him they broke the sword and Umar's language listening, he says, get the dog and save us from his evil this is the language of these people this is the kind of language that they speak about they took the sword, gave it to Umar, Umar broke the sword again, he said, pledge allegiance to Abu Bakr the people have elected him and by Allah if you refuse, we will deal with you with the sword this is the siyasa this is how Umar ibn al-Khattab's politics is run with the sword with anger with onuf he does not have the siyasa of Ahl al-Bait, peace be upon them some weak-minded people in this group did pledge allegiance to Abu Bakr Ali, peace be upon him, refused let me read you the Nassab of Ali ibn Abi Talib he said I am more worthy of this matter than him you should pledge allegiance to me instead you took this matter from the Ansar and argued with them that they were the relatives of the Prophet of Allah and you took it from the family by force did you not claim to the Ansar that you deserve this more than them because of your relation to the Prophet of Allah so they gave you the lead and the case I argue with you by the same argument you proposed I am the most worthy of this position I am the son of Abu Talib the uncle of Rasulullah I am the most righteous the first to believe in him the best fighter who fought many mushriqeen the most knowledgeable of the book and the sunnah the most knowledgeable of this religion be just if you fear Allah if your argument is that they are more oula because they are family while I, Ali ibn Abi Talib is more oula to you the conversation went on of course, Abu ibadah Abu ibadah gave his argument he said, ya Ali ibn Abi Talib you are young and Abu Bakr is older than you you are young and Abu Bakr is older than you you might not handle this new leadership this is the argument of the mukhalifeen Ali was young he was about 33 to 30 years old at that time what could he do with the government a young child this man is learned he's a scholar he's old he has wisdom masha'Allah after this Amir al-Mu'minin refused and he went inside the house and he followed the wasiha of Rasulullah which is to collect the Quran to collect the Quran in the tanzib that it was sent down upon Muhammad peace be upon him and his holy family and this was on a Wednesday meaning a couple two to three days after the march of the Rasulullah peace be upon him and his holy family at this point Omar Gan came to the house of Lady Fatim this is the second time that Ibn al-Khattab comes to the house of Lady Fatima he says to Fatima oh Fatima if these individuals gather with you then I will command that the house will shall be burned and you in it or it shall be destroyed while you are in it Fatima alayhi salam stood by the door she says I do not know any people that come for something worse than you you left the prophet of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi wa salam dead in our hands and you took this matter amongst yourselves you did not ask us or give us our due rights this is Fatima to the Zahra peace be upon her oh Shia of al-Muhammad why don't you learn to be like Sayyid al-Fatima Omar came to Abu Bakr and he sent him are you not going to destroy or are you not going to bring this person to give allegiance to you he told, he tells Abu Bakr that without the allegiance of Ali ibn Abi Talib peace be upon him your government is nothing so you must force Ali ibn Abi Talib to come you see how cunning these people are Abu Bakr said then we will said Qunfud Qunfud is Fadun Ghalid min al-Tulaqaa he said, go and tell Ali go and tell Ali answer the Caliph of the Prophet of Allah Qunfud went he spoke to Ali ibn Abi Talib, Ali sent him back and told him to tell them the Prophet of Allah did not appoint a Caliph other than me you are quick Abu Bakr to lie about the Prophet of Allah in a hadith Abu Bakr said, yes truly the Prophet of Allah did not appoint me as a Caliph Subhanallah, even Abu Bakr himself testifies because the Bukhalifin today have known us for the Khilafah of Abu Bakr at all all they have is that democratically the people chose them now after this incident the night came and Ali ibn Abi Talib peace be upon him Ali ibn Abi Talib took Fatimid al-Zahraa on his mule and he took the hands of Al-Hassan and Al-Hussein peace be upon them and he went towards the houses of the Ansar and the Muhajireen and began asking them for help telling them come to me tomorrow shaving your heads and pledging your allegiance to me they went to every single house knocking on the door only four answers Salman said four answered some of them were so rough and they said to Fatimid al-Zahraa oh daughter of Muhammad if you came to us first we would have pledged allegiance for you you see everything about them is worldly desires the next attack the next attack Umar goes to Abu Bakr and he tells him there are still some people in the house of Ali ibn Abi Talib we have to get them out he tells them go and take some people with you Umar comes to the house of Fatimid al-Zahraa he says nafs Umar by the one who holds Umar's life you will get out of here you will bring Ali ibn Abi Talib out or I will burn it with those who are inside I will burn the house and whoever is inside the house somebody told them ibn al-Khattab inna fil bayti Fatimid he said wa'in in the house is Fatimid he says I don't care this is the second attack he threatened already more than once my dear brothers and sisters threatening a believer a believing man and a believing woman is enough to anger Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala and you come and threaten my lady Fatimid now the introduction to the final attack Umar became furious and he said to Abu Bakr what stops you from standing from sending someone after him to tell him to come and pledge allegiance if you do not do that then I will Umar ran out again his normal self, his normal characteristics around outside calling for help answer the Khalifa of Allah the horses came and the men came and they all read themselves for battle it is narrated approximately 300 people or more came to the house of Fatimid he came to him and he said I have gathered for you horses and men oh Abu Bakr Abu Bakr said who should we send them with Umar said send Qunfud he is rude and harsh and gross he is from the freed captives send him with people to aid him as well Umar said to Qunfud listen take them out of the house if they go out or else gather the firewood by the door let them know if they do not come out to pledge allegiance that you will set the house on fire Qunfud went to Ali ibn Abi Talib and Sayyid al-Fatima and Ali ibn Abi Talib refused to let anybody in Qunfud went back to Abu Bakr and then he told them we were not allowed in the house Umar told him go if they allow you to enter the house then do it and if they do not allow you then enter without permission they went again and say the Fatima was at the door she said shame on you shame on you to enter my house without my permission the men went back and Qunfud again and the man said to him she said such and such so we were ashamed to enter the house of Fatima now the final attack Umar got very angry and he said why do we care about the women listen to the way he talked about Fatima al-Zahra why do we care about the women he ordered the people around him to come and collect firewood they collected firewood and Abu Bakr said to Umar get him to me in the worst way possible be violent towards Ali ibn Abi Talib get them out and if they refuse then fight them Umar went out with a large group of people of the companions from the Mohajireen and Ansar and the freed captives and the hypocrites of the past Arabs and the rest of the parties and like I said there was an army of 300 to 400 people awaiting to attack the house of Fatima al-Zahra peace be upon her they gathered their torches they gathered the firewood and then they began to get ready they came towards the house they came towards the house and Umar as well had a torch in his hand someone said to Umar he said Fatima is inside he said I will soon meet with Fatima I will soon meet with Fatima and deal with Fatima I'll read to you the Maqtul here they had made up their minds and they would not leave until the house is burnt they came with their horses and we can hear the army Fatima says I can hear the horses hooves and the cries of the horses coming towards my house the narrators say we can hear the voices of the horses the steps of their feet and the grinding of their teeth Fatima was behind the door she had tied around her head a band and her body was very weak due to the loss of Rasulullah peace be upon him when she heard them coming closer she closed the door thinking they will not enter without permission Fatima they will not enter without permission they began knocking on the door very hard they began calling out Ali ibn Abi Talib peace be upon him come pledge allegiance to Abu Bakr come pledge allegiance to Abu Bakr Omar said oh ibn Abi Talib open the door by Allah if you do not open the door we will burn it with the fire get out oh Ali get out get out and do what the Muslims have agreed upon Fatima alaihi salam got behind the door she said oh tyrants you liars what are you saying what do you want Omar said oh Fatima oh Fatima she said what do you want oh Omar he said what is the matter with the son of your uncle he sent you to answer and sat behind the veil she said you tyrant you criminal I have come out to make a stance against you and every deviating misleading person like you he said leave the vanities and the stories of women oh Fatima let Ali come out she said no love and no honor do you scare me since you have parted with the devil oh Omar for the party of the devil is weak he said if he does not get out I will bring the burning firewood and I will burn the house down and those who are in it or Ali gets taken to pledge allegiance she said oh Omar what is the matter with you why do you not leave us alone he said open the door or we will burn down the house with you in it she said you will burn down the house and we are in it he said wallah by Allah or Ali ibn Abi Talib will pledge allegiance she said to him who onto you oh Omar what is this audacity on Allah and his prophet you want to finish his progeny from the world and turn off the light of Allah he said enough oh Fatima Muhammad is not present nor did the angels bring the command and the prohibition from Allah and Ali is nothing but just one of the Muslims so choose so choose if you want that he gets out to pledge allegiance to Abu Bakr she said while crying oh Allah to you I complain the loss of my prophet and your messenger and your sincere friend this nation is turning its heels back upon us and has taken our rights and has oppressed us Omar said oh Fatima leave the foolishness of women verily Allah did not grant you prophethood and and successorship she said to him oh Omar do you not fear Allah Almighty you enter my house and attack me and that is when Omar ibn al-Khattab ordered for the firewood to be put around the house Fatima alaihi salam called out oh father oh apostle of Allah do you see what I have received from ibn Abi al-Khattab and ibn Abi Quhafa some people heard the voice in Fatima and began to cry and left yet Omar came with a large group of men he asked for the fire to come and begin by setting the door on fire the fire burned the wooden door the smoke entered the house Qunfud put his hand inside the hole that was created by the fire Fatima alaihi salam grabbed the door handles to prevent him from opening it she said I ask you for the sake of Allah and my father the prophet of Allah leave us alone Omar grabbed the lash from Qunfud and he began to hit the upper arm of Fatima Tuzhara the lash wrapped itself around the hand of Fatima and it became like a armlet like a black armlet Omar hit the door with his foot and kicked it while Fatima alaihi salam was standing behind the door he started to push her in a very ferocious and violent fashion he began to kick the door with his foot and he squeezed her between the door and the nail began to pierce his ribs and break her ribs she began to scream she began to scream and ask for the soul of Allah ya abata where are you she used the back of the wall as protection for her back and that is when Ali ibn Abi Talib salamullahi alaihi got out of his room his eyes bloodshot and red and he was unarmed he took his cloak and covered her and he took her close to her chest and he said oh fufda your lady take her take from her that what the woman has taken from each other take Fatima take Fatima for she has miscarried my son al-Muhassin take him and bury him in the house Ali alaihi salam jumped like a lion towards Umar took him by his collar he shook him to the ground and hurt him he broke his nose and when he was about to kill him he remembered the wasiha of Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wa alihi wasallam that if you find people to aid then you revolt against them oh Ali and you have to be patient the greatest oppression that happened is not the ribs of Fatima the greatest oppression is the fact that Ali ibn Abi Talib had to be patient he was on the ground he was on the ground and they put around him a rope and began to drag him throughout his house from his own house they dragged him out Fatima alaihi salam came after them she stood in front of Ali ibn Abi Talib in the way of Ali ibn Abi Talib and they let go of him Umar said to confid go and slash Fatima with your lash and they hit her on the hand and they hit her on the back and these aathar stayed on her body they took Ali to the masjid they took Ali ibn Abi Talib to the masjid and Fatima alaihi salam came with the shirt of Rasulullah on her head Ali ibn Abi Talib told Salman go to Fatima right now if she goes to the grave of Rasulullah and she begins to cry to Allah and pray to Allah wallah madina will be engulfed this second because the anger of Allah will come upon madina Salman went and she told them ya bintan muhammad do not do this do not pray on them or this entire city will be engulfed i don't know what more to tell you Fatima went through much more oppression but it's very hard to read these it is very difficult to read these a hadith and i apologize for my shortcomings and i apologize if i misquoted anything and insha'Allah we will continue in the next episode and we will see the stance of our imams peace be upon them on what the pain that they narrate about their mother Fatima to al-Zahraa peace be upon you my lady Fatima and may Allah hasten the reappearance of your son al-Muntabar al-Mahdi peace be upon you
