RNA – Speaking during a poetry ceremony marking the Days of Fatimiyyah in Qom, ‎‎Ayatollah Mohammad-Javad Fazel-Lankarani, a teaching in the Islamic Seminary of Qom, ‎‎referred to the importance and value of promoting the Days of Fatimiyyah and stressed, ‎‎‎“One of the ceremonies which is considered as the sustenance of God for the lovers of the ‎‎Ahlul-Bayt is the gathering of tears, eulogies and poetry.”‎

The head of the Jurisprudential Centre of the Pure Imams referred to the important points in ‎relation to the religious poets and said, ‎‎“Undoubtedly, reading and listening to poetry about ‎the Ahlul-Bayt has great rewards and ‎is considered a valuable reserve for the Day of ‎Judgement but the eulogists of the Ahlul-Bayt ‎and the eulogists must pay special attention to ‎the actual teachings and knowledge of the ‎Pure Imams.”‎
‎
Ayatollah Fazel-Lankarani stated ‎the existence of Lady Fatimah al-Zahra as an unique ‎existence and said, “The lovers of Lady Fatimah al-Zahra ‎will be in separate line on the Day ‎of Judgement and this is an honour for all of us and we must protect it.‎”‎

His Eminence stated, “The Days of Fatimiyyah is of such great importance that throughout ‎the past dozens of years, our great sources of emulation who are elderly have marched on ‎the anniversary of the martyrdom of Lady Fatimah al-Zahra to revive this divine tradition. ‎Therefore, we must know that knowing God without knowing the Ahlul-Bayt and Lady ‎Fatimah al-Zahra isn’t possible.”‎

Ayatollah Fazel-Lankarani referred to the position of the Days of Fatimiyyah in increasing the ‎monotheistic spirit in man and said, “Those who object to the revival of the mourning for the ‎Ahlul-Bayt and the ceremonies in commemorating of them, which they regard as idolatry or ‎polytheism, are truly ignorant people who don’t perceive the true existence of the Ahlul-Bayt ‎because we a hadith (narration) from [Imam Muhammad al-Baqir] which states: ‘God is ‎angry when Fatimah is angry and pleased when she is pleased’ and due to the blessings of ‎Lady Fatimah al-Zahra, the Shi’ahs have found value and importance.”‎
