Friday, February 8th, 2019 marks the martyrdom anniversary of
Sayyida Fatimah al-Zahra (p) according to the third narration, 3rd of Jumada al-Thania, 1440, A.H.

It was reported that a man had asked his wife to go and ask Sayyida Fatimah (p) if he was considered among the [true] Shia [of Ahl al-Bayt]. When she asked, Sayyida Fatimah (p) replied, “Tell him, if you act according to our commands and keep away from what we forbid, then you are from our Shia; otherwise, you are not.”

[Shaykh al-Majlisi, Bihar al-Anwar, vol 65, p. 155]

روي أن رجلاَ قال لامرأته: اذهبي إلى فاطمة بنت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله فاسأليها عني أني من شيعتكم أم ليس من شيعتكم؟ فسألتها فقالت: قولي له: إن كنت تعمل بما أمرناك، وتنتهي عما زجرناك عنه، فأنت من شيعتنا وإلا فلا

[الشيخ المجلسي, بحار الأنوار, ج 65, ص 155]
