There is no specific mention of Lady Fatima al-Ma'suma's birth date in early sources; however, later history books state that she was born on the first day of [[Dhu l-Qa'da]], [[173]] / March 26, 790, in [[Medina]]. She is said to have passed away on Rabi II 10, 201/November 9, 816. Her father is [[Imam al-Kazim (a)|Musa b. Ja'far]] al-Kazim (a), the seventh Shi'a Imam. When recounting the daughters of Imam al-Kazim (a), [[al-Shaykh al-Mufid]] mentions two Fatimas –the elder Fatima and the younger Fatima. Also, [[Ibn al-Jawzi]] records two other daughters of the Imam, known as the middle Fatima and the last Fatima. The mother of Lady Fatima al-Ma'suma and [[Imam al-Rida (a)]] is [[Najma Khatun]]. | There is no specific mention of Lady Fatima al-Ma'suma's birth date in early sources; however, later history books state that she was born on the first day of [[Dhu l-Qa'da]], [[173]] / March 26, 790, in [[Medina]].

===Date of Birth and Demise=== | |||
Rida Ustadi believes that the oldest source which mentioned the dates of birth and demise of Lady Ma'suma (a) is ''Nur al-afaq'' (published in 1334 AH) written by Jawad Shah 'Abd al-'Azimi (d. 1355 AH). Ustadi referred to different parts of this book and concluded that many of its claims including the dates of birth and demise it mentions for Lady Ma'suma (a) are forged and other books have cited them from this book. Some years after publication of Ustadi's article, Rasul Ja'fariyan complained about mentioning these dates of birth and demise in calendars and published a summary of Ustadi's researches. Also, Sayyid Diya' Murtadawi emphasized on the same point in an article titled as "the dates of birth and demise of Lady Fatima al-Ma'suma (a), a report on a baseless documentation". In this report, he explained fruitless efforts for finding the dates of birth and demise of Lady Ma'suma (a) and introduced the sources Jawad Shah 'Abd al-'Azimi referred to as fake and unreliable. | |||
[[Ayatullah]] [[Sayyid Musa Shubayri Zanjani]] mentioned the dates of birth and demise of Lady Ma'suma (a) forged and told the story of their forgery. The author of ''[[Rayahin al-shari'a]]'' mentioned that the dates are invalid. He claimed that he referred to the source Shah 'Abd al-'Azimi mentioned, but did not find anything in this regard. He also mentioned that he consulted about this issue with Ayatullah [[Shihab al-Din Mar'ashi]] and he too emphasized that both dates are forged and invalid and that Ayatullah Mar'ashi knew the forger and about his intention. | |||
