The lesson
- The Prophet said Fatima is a part of him: whoever angers her angers him (al-Amali of al-Mufid; al-Amali of al-Tusi; Musnad Ahmad), and he equated her pleasure and anger with the pleasure and anger of God. He called her the mistress of the women of Paradise and of the women of all the worlds ('Ilal al-Shara'i'; Dala'il al-Imama; Sahih al-Bukhari).
- The Prophet's line continues through her alone, and the Imams are her sons; exegetes (al-Mizan of al-Tabataba'i; Tafsir-i Nimuna; al-Fakhr al-Razi) see this as al-Kawthar, the abundant good God gave His Messenger (108:1-3).
- The angels spoke to her, before her father's passing and after it, consoling her and telling her what would befall her progeny; so she is called al-Muhaddatha. Imam Ali wrote down what the angel told her: the Mushaf of Fatima, passed from Imam to Imam and now with Imam al-Mahdi (al-Kafi 1:240-241; Basa'ir al-Darajat).
