Fātimīyya (Arabic: فاطمیة) is an adjectival term, referring to the anniversary of Lady Fatima al-Zahra's martyrdom, during which Shi'a community holds mourning sessions and rituals.
According to different historical reports within Shi'a traditions, several different dates have been recorded for this incident. Among Iraqi Shi'as, especially in Najaf, three different days; and in Iran two days of the year, are held as the anniversary of Her martyrdom. Out of different historical accounts, third of Jumada l-Thania is regarded as more reliable; hence it is an official holyday in Iran, as an occasion for mourning and lamentation.
Variance of Historical Reports
The exact date of Lady Fatima al-Zahra's martyrdom remains uncertain due to different historical reports and narrations from the Ahl al-Bayt (a). There are different and incompatible records of that date, like: 40 days after the demise of the Holy Prophet (s), 72 or 75 days after it, 95 days, 3 or 6 months after the demise.
Iraqi Shi'as hold ceremonies in three of these reports: 40 days after the demise of the Holy Prophet (s) (8 Rabi' al-Thani), 75 days after it (13 Jumada al-awwal), and 95 days (3 Jumada l-Thania]]). Iranian Shi'a, however, hold ceremonies in two last ones.
According to what Abu Basir has narrated from Imam al-Sadiq (a), Lady Fatima al-Zahra (a) was martyred on Tuesday, third of Jumada al-Thania. This occasion has been revitalized after the establishment of the Islamic Seminary in Qom by Shaykh 'Abd al-Karim Ha'iri. Since 2000, when the administration of president Sayyid Muhammad Khtami approved a suggestion by Ayatollah Wahid Khurasani, the third of Jumada l-Thania has been declared as a national holyday in Iran. After this decision, the mourning ceremonies expanded in Iran. Some Shi'a marja's attend ritual mourning procession, walking toward the Holy Shrine of Imam al-Rida (a) in Mashhad, and the Holy Shrine of Lady Fatima al-Ma'suma (a) in Qom.
