So, let those who were disturbed by the crying of Fatimah rest in comfort, and let their consciences feel at ease, and let them sleep on their cosy beds at night in peace, without being bothered by the weeping of Fatimah! We now turn to some of the poetry that was composed about this great injustice. One poet says:

One of the great scholars, al-Sayyid Baqir al-Hindi, saw Imam al-Mahdi (‘a) in his dream, and the Imam recited the following couplet in reference to this injustice:

Alas, how sad I feel for her and for her youth, for the pain she suffered, for her broken and heavy heart, and for her shattered will. She became bedridden as sickness and emaciation had taken a toll on her. The beautiful and bright flower began to wither away. No remedy or cure worked, and she did not expect to recover. She was waiting for death; she was waiting to escape from this life. She sought to join her father, the Prophet. Her sun was about to set. The candle of the Prophet was about to be extinguished. The world had become constricted for her. She looked at her illustrious husband sitting at home, having been stripped of all his assets, his rights having been usurped. She saw how her property had been confiscated and her wealth seized. She sought help but nobody came to her aid, and she asked for assistance but nobody was ready to assist her. They had prevented her from crying for her father, the Prophet of Allah (S) and the noblest of fathers. It is narrated from Imam al-Baqir (‘a) that one of her supplications was: “O Ever- living, O Eternal One, by Your mercy I seek rescue, So, rescue me.
