The Right Side of History Magazine, No. 37

On the eve of the martyrdom anniversary of Lady Fatimah Zahra (pbuh), this issue is dedicated to the woman the Prophet (pbuh) called "the foremost among the women of Paradise" — a woman whose life, fourteen centuries later, still offers an answer to the world's deepest questions about dignity, sacrifice, and what it means to be a defender of the Truth.

In "Words of Wisdom" and "Word for Word," the martyred Leader's reflections return: that Sunni and Shia alike agree on her exalted station; that Jibra'il descended upon her repeatedly after the Prophet's passing, consoling her and foretelling what would befall her descendants; and that the Quran immortalized her household's charity — food given to an orphan, a needy person, and a captive, without any expectation of reward.

Featuring a "Memorable Frame" from the annual gatherings the martyred Leader held in his Hussainiyah for her martyrdom — an appointment he never neglected. This year, the gathering meets an absence: the face that welcomed the mourners each year has departed, and the man who opened his residence for her remembrance is now counted among the martyrs. Yet the mourning continues, and those who grieve now grieve twice over.

In "Opinion," Dr. Hakimeh Saqhaye-Biria examines the crisis of womanhood in the modern world — the dehumanization that reduces women to objects, the moral darkness of a new jāhiliyyah — and presents Lady Fatimah (pbuh) as the answer: a complete, integrated, radiant humanity, and the exemplar of the woman who builds humanity itself.

In "A Moment with Caravan of Martyrs," marking the anniversary of his martyrdom on November 12, we pay tribute to Martyr Hassan Tehrani Moghaddam — the father of Iran's missile program, a man whose every endeavor was bound to Lady Fatimah Zahra (pbuh). Whenever a project stalled, he turned to her as his true helper, teaching his comrades to dedicate the reward of their work to her, and holding gatherings in her memory even amid active missions.
