The story of the attack on Fatima’s (a) house, which took place after the [[Saqifa incident]] and with the aim of taking Imam Ali’s (a) allegiance for the [[caliphate]] of Abu Bakr, and led to the martyrdom of Lady Fatima (a), has been one of the issues affecting Shiite-Sunni relations. Some of the earliest Shiite sources, such as the ''book of Sulaym b. Qays'', ''Ithbat al-wasiyya'', ''Tafsir al-'Ayashi'', and ''[[Dala'il al-Imama]]'', have reported the incident and its consequences and in contrast, Sunni sources deny setting the door of the house on fire and the abortion of [[Muhsin b. 'Ali|Muhsin (a)]], and called the narrators unreliable and Rafidiyy.
