When Hadhrat Fatemah's (SA) birth was to take place, the Prophet Mohammad(PBUH)) told Khadijah (SA) "Gabriel has given me the good news that this child which is going to be born is a daughter and all the infallible Imams will be from her generation.Hadhrat Fatemah az-Zahra (SA) was born on Friday the twentieth of Jamadi ath-Thani, the fifth year of Hejrah, when Quraysh were busy in constructing the building of the Ka'bah.Fatemah (SA) was brought up and trained in the family of Prophet (S) and took advantage and share of the knowledge and wisdom of the Prophet (S). She heard the recitation of Quran from the Prophet (S) and leant it by heart, and got busy with the idea and concept of self training and becoming a complete and real human.She extremely loved her honourable father and the Holy Quran. She took advantage and portion from the blessings of her father's existence. These were the perfections due to which the Prophet (S) loved her to the extreme.Once his wife Aeshah asked him, "Do you love Fatemah az-Zahra so much, that when she arrives you get up from your place to give respect to her and kiss her hands and make her sit next to yourself?"He replied, "Oh Aeshah! If you come to know why I love Fatemah so much, you shall also love her." He considered her the part and parcel of his life, and used to say repeatedly, "Fatemah (SA) is a piece of me, whosoever tortures her he has tortured me, and whoever pleases her has pleased me." One day, the Prophet (S) of Islam said, "Oh Fatemah God gets pleased on your being pleased and gets furious due to your unhappiness and displeasure.Fatemah az-Zahra (SA), most of all resembled her father in her looks, character, behaviour and conduct. Umm Salamah the wife of the Prophet (S) said, "Fatemah az-Zahra resembled the Prophet (S) most of all the people."The love between the father and daughter was not a one-way process; instead, Fatemah (SA) too immensely loved her father (Prophet) like he loved her. When Hadhrat Khadijah (SA) died, she was not more than six years of age. After the death of her mother, she always looked after the comfort of her father at home. Fatemah (SA) was such a daughter who constantly and stably followed the footsteps of her father. The streets and Masjed al-Haram of Makkah were full of those who teased, insulted and tortured the Prophet (S). Whenever her respect worthy father returned home in the injured condition, she would wash the blood off his sacred face and dress his wounds and encouraged him with her sweet conversation.At such times, when her father was a stranger in his own land and among his own people and he was all alone with all the relatives present, and secluded and lonely among all those who spoke the same language he spoke. Moreover, he was all-alone during his struggle and combat against ignorance, idol worshipping and he was carrying the heavy responsibility of preaching on his own.Then it was only and only Fatemah (SA) who pleased and consoled the heart of her father with her sincere love and affection. She by accepting the Prophecy of her father strengthened his hopes. That is the reason why the Prophet used to say, "May your father sacrifice his life upon you" or that he would call her the "mother of her father." Because, she was like a mother for her father.The testament and will of Fatemah (SA) made is clear and evident for all races to come that the daughter of the Prophet (S) was subjected to oppression. Fatemah (SA) remained unhappy and annoyed with oppressors up to her death.

Therefore, those should remain ready for vengeance and revenge.
