Dear all,
At 06:57am GMT (2:57pm local time) a desperate urgent message was received:
"Happening now! Police, JAIS and local council are raiding a gathering remembering the birth of Lady Fatima Zahra (daughter of the Prophet Muhammad).  Four arrested including Kamil Zuhairi Abd Aziz."
This act of sectarian hatred by a state against its citizens was in addition to the seizure of land belonging to the community on 7 May 2011 coinciding with the mourning commemoration of Lady Fatima Zahra that week.
No further details.

Iran Launches Religious Imam Reza TV

The Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) has launched a new satellite channel to provide information on life and reflections of the eighth Shia Imam, Imam Reza (PBUH).

The new satellite network, named Imam Reza TV, was officially inaugurated on Tuesday on Mother's Day in Iran, ISNA reported.
Mother's Day, which is also celebrated as Women's Day in Iran, is marked every year in Iran on the auspicious birth anniversary of Prophet Muhammad's (PBUH) daughter, Fatemeh, who is highly revered in the Muslim world, especially Iran, as the ultimate model for women, wives and mothers.
Imam Reza satellite channel can be received on Atlantic Bird 4A (Nilesat), frequency: 10720 MHz, horizontal position, symbol rate: 27500, FEC ¾.  (Press TV)

Celebrating the Wiladat of Lady Fatima Zahra (s.a.)

Ibn ˋAbbas narrates from the Prophet (S) that he stated:

“My daughter Fatima is the foremost of all the women of the world, past and future. She is a portion of me, the light of my eyes, the fruit of my heart and a spirit that resides in my body... Be witness that that I have granted her followers amnesty from the fire of hell.”

Her Birth

According to Shaykh al-Kulayni, Fatima Zahra was born 5 years after the appointment of the Prophet to his mission (bi’that). Shaykh al-Mufid places her birth at 2 years after the bi’that, and Shaykh al-Tusi has mentioned both dates. Accordingly, she lived for 8 or 11 years in Makka before she migrated to Madina, and according to Ya’qubi, two months after the hijra₅, and according to Mas‟udi, in the second year of hijra, the Prophet married her to Ali b. Abu Talib.

Sunni scholars usually mention that she was born 5 years before the bi‟that, in the year that the Quraysh rebuilt the Ka‟ba. Some of them, like Hakim Nishaburi, have also mentioned that she was born a year after the bi‟that, when the Prophet was 41 years old. For detail
