“Fatima has no real hope to be able to get back any power. She knows that Ali has lost his rights. The chosen powers, which have pre-designed and pre-planned the whole thing, have become fixed. She must fight and struggle with the little hope that she has. She must rebel against the ruler. Even if she cannot defeat him, she will at least have condemned him. If it does not fall, it can, at least, be disgraced. If the truth cannot be implemented, it can be proven and designed so that time will come to know it. It can be kept alive, so that people come to know that the ruling forces do not represent the truth. They are oppressive.” -Ali Shariati, Fatima is Fatima
As the Fatimiyyah mourning period reaches its peak, sharing an excerpt from Ali Shariati’s work on the daughter of the Prophet (peace be upon her)‘Fatima is Fatima’, which seems particularly relevant to our current times.
