Q:

What was the Faith Of Fakhtiah Bint Abu Talib did  she Die on Faith Of Allah And Muhammad ص.?

A:

Wa Alaikum al-salam

Thanks for your question.
According to various historical sources she accepted islam before the conquest of Mecca and immigrated form Mecca to madina afterward. She was an important figure to prophet s.a.w.a and Ahl al Bayt a.s (for example the prophet sawa used to visit her, the ascension or Miʿrāj of the prophet sawa  began from her house etc.). she narrated ahadith like ghadir,The Hadith al-Thaqalayn,  and was active character in different islamic events even after prophet s.a.w.a (like fadak or the battle of the Camel (jamal) in Imam Ali’s a.s time etc.)
so she was not just a faithful person but an active character in different islami events as well.

Sheikh Mahdi Mosayyebi
