36. Fatima Zahra (s.a.) Nourishes the Believing Infants of the Shias – Surah at-Tur (52:21)

وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَاتَّبَعَتْهُمْ ذُرِّيَّتُهُمْ بِإِيمَانٍ أَلْحَقْنَا بِهِمْ ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ وَمَا أَلَتْنَاهُمْ مِنْ عَمَلِهِمْ مِنْ شَيْءٍ ۚ كُلُّ امْرِئٍ بِمَا كَسَبَ رَهِينٌ

“And (as for) those who believe and their offspring follow them in faith, We will unite with them their offspring and We will not diminish to them aught of their work; every man is responsible for what he shall have wrought.”

Imam Sadiq (a.s.) said, Surely the believing infants¹ of our Shias are being nourished by Janabe Fatima Zahra (s.a.).²
