Lady Fatima Zahra (A) then added:

'O People! Be informed that I am Fatima, and my father is Muhammad

I say that repeatedly and initiate it continually; I say not what I say

grieves him that you should perish; Ardently anxious is he over you; To

the believers he is most kind and merciful. Thus, if you identify and

recognize him, you shall realize that he is my father and not the father

of any of your women; the brother of my cousin (Ali (A)) rather than

any of your men. What an excellent identity he was, may the peace

and blessings of Allah be upon him and his descendants Thus, he

propagated the Message, by coming out openly with the warning, and

while inclined away from the path of the polytheists,

(whom he) struck their strength and seized their throats, while he

invited (all) to the way of his Lord with wisdom and beautiful preaching

He destroyed idols, and defeated heroes, until their group fled and

turned their backs. So night revealed its dawn; righteousness

uncovered its genuineness; the voice of the religious authority spoke

out loud; the evil discords were silenced; The crown of hypocrisy was

diminished; the tightening of infidelity and desertion were untied,

So you spoke the statement of devotion amongst a band of starved

the thirsty one; the opportunity of the desiring one; the fire brand of

him who passes in haste; the step for feet; you used to drink from the

water gathered on roads; eat jerked meat. (Lady Fatima (A) was

stating their lowly situation before Islam) You were despised outcasts
