Within Shīʿī thought, Muṣḥaf Fāṭimah holds a unique place as a record of divine inspiration (ilhām) and angelic communication bestowed upon Lady Fāṭimah al-Zahrāʾ (ʿa, an honorific meaning ʿalayhā al-salām — “peace be upon her”) after the Prophet Muḥammad’s (peace be upon him and his Family) passing. It reflects her closeness to the realm of divine knowledge and her role as the recipient of spiritual guidance distinct from waḥy (revelation).
About the Book
Mushaf Fatimah (a.s), published by the Ahl al-Bayt (ʿa) Organization, offers a concise theological introduction to this sacred text as described in early ḥadīth (prophetic and Imamic traditions). It clarifies that Muṣḥaf Fāṭimah is not an alternative to the Qurʾān but a compilation of inspired wisdom, moral insights, and knowledge of unseen events (ʿilm al-ghayb) conveyed to Lady Fāṭimah (ʿa) through divine illumination.
The book emphasizes that waḥy — prophetic revelation — concluded with the Prophet Muḥammad (peace be upon him and his Family), while ilhām — divine inspiration — remained a channel of spiritual knowledge and comfort granted to Lady Fāṭimah (ʿa). This distinction is vital in understanding how the Imams (ʿa) later inherited her Muṣḥaf as a source of guidance and divine foreknowledge.

Mushaf Fatimah (a.s)

Few topics in Islamic scholarship have inspired as much reflection as the mysterious Mushaf Fāṭimah (a.s) — a text said to have been compiled after the Prophet Muḥammad’s (peace be upon him and his Family) passing, through divine inspiration (ilhām) and angelic communication — not revelation (waḥy) in the prophetic sense. In Shīʿī tradition, it represents a treasury of divine knowledge entrusted to Lady Fāṭimah al-Zahrāʾ (ʿa, an honorific meaning ʿalayhā al-salām — “peace be upon her”), serving as a source of wisdom for the Imams (ʿa) of the Ahl al-Bayt (ʿa, an honorific meaning ʿalayhim al-salām — “peace be upon them”), the Prophet’s Household.
About the Book
This work offers an insightful exploration of Mushaf Fāṭimah (a.s), clarifying common misconceptions and situating it within the broader framework of Islamic theology. It explains that the Mushaf is not an alternative to the Qurʾān, but rather a compilation of divine knowledge, foresight, and wisdom meant for the Imams — a spiritual record revealed to Lady Fāṭimah (ʿa) through inspiration after the Prophet’s passing. The book examines narrations from classical Shīʿī sources such as al-Kāfī and Bihār al-Anwār, showing how leading scholars have interpreted its meaning and significance. Published by the Ahl al-Bayt Organization in 2004, it remains a key reference for understanding this sacred trust of knowledge.
