This came during the speech he sent to the festival of the second annual international cultural festival of Spirit of Prophethood [rouh nobowa], which was delivered on his behalf at the closing ceremony of the festival for being unable to attend it from Lebanon, by Dr. Taghreed Haider, which stated:
Who is Fatima Az-Zahra (peace be upon her)? She is from a house that is respected by all the world, and she is a school that taught us the meaning of dignity, authenticity and noble attributes, and she was a teacher and the best orator with the finest eloquence, a pioneer, ideal and exemplar human in the world of human beings, and she is the fighter for the sake of God, Islam and the right.
She opposed the injustice and rose up to protect the policy of the divine right and raised the roof of her protest when she recommended that she be buried at night and those who disbelieved in truth and harmed her, shall not attend her funeral.
We, as Christians, are the offspring of the Virgin Mary who fought alongside her son Isa [Jesus] (peace be upon him), but Lady. az-Zahra (peace be upon her) is distinguished for her struggle for Islam in a sensitive period of human history through her religious and social position. As all her life she was faithful and truthful so she has been given the title of the truthful [Siddiqah].
She took her strength and courage from God Almighty, and thus she had a great ability to persuade in support of her father's message, and she remained firm in different situations despite her illness, and lived for the great issues and taught us how to not retreat from our right or weaken us in the face of difficulties.
Her views reflected political reform and she wanted to show the morals, spirituality and psychological discipline of the Muslim woman. She took care of the science and the hadeeths of the Prophet (Allah's prayers be upon him and upon his holy Household) and she took precedence over others in all fields and carried the personality of the Prophet in all its dimensions. No human being or intellectual can deny her science, knowledge, virtues, and her lofty ethics, as through her science and morals scientists held various meetings and learned lessons from her words and actions.
Thus this saint lady lived for her mission, which showed the greatness of humanity and the Prophet (Allah's prayers be upon him and his holy Household) said that she is the lady of the women of the worlds. It is good for us to learn from her nobility, her eloquence, her knowledge and her prayer, for she represents holiness in all its meanings.”
