DOME OF BIBI ZAINAB (S.A)

SHAAM (DAMASCUS)

The death of the vanguard of protection for the members of the family of the Prophet and the lady who carried forth the message of

Kerbala for the future generations, Lady Zainab the daughter of Ali (AS) holds a special place in the hearts of

all Muslims.

Death Anniversary of Lady Zainab (a.s)

Lady Zainab was known for her excellent morals, her intense

worship, her great knowledge and her eloquence. Her veil was

snatched away in Karbala, indeed one of the aims of the veil is to promote the recognition of the women for their characteristics rather than their appearance.

Sura 24 verse 31 says:" Say to the believing women that they should cast down their looks and guard their private parts and do not display their ornaments except what appears thereof: that will make  greater purity for them: and God is well acquainted with all that they do.

May the sacrifices she made and the messages she left behind never fade from our hearts.
