Report of Nazzam (230 A.H.) about the attack on the house of revelation and martyrdom of Lady Zahra (sa)

Ibrahim bin Sayyar bin Hani, alias Nazzam (d. 230 A.H.), famous philosopher and theologian of Ahle Sunnat, who due to his beautiful discourse in prose and poetry has become famous as Nazzam; he is the founder of the Nazzamiya sect and is from the elders of Mutazila. He is among those who have admitted to the trespassing on the sanctity of Lady Fatima Zahra (s) by the second Caliph of Ahle Sunnat and some other facts and events, which took place in the early period of Islam; but regretfully some Ahle Sunnat scholars have condemned him severely only because he has admitted these facts and without any justification leveled false accusations against him and have even expelled him from the folds of Islam and related him to Brahmanism.[1]

In his numerous books, he has quoted the incident of attack on the house of Lady Zahra (s):
On the day of allegiance of Abu Bakr, Umar hit at the side of Lady Fatima (s), which led to the miscarriage of her child, who was named as Mohsin.[2]

As was hinted, Nazzam became a target of many allegations due to his explanation of some historical facts, so that naturally by criticism, investigation of accusatory instances and exposing of reality, the allegations laid on him would be removed.[3]
