[[Al-Sayyid Muhammad Baqir al-Sadr]] in his book | [[Al-Sayyid Muhammad Baqir al-Sadr]] in his book ''Fadak fi l-tarikh'' (Fadak in history) counts the raising of the topic of Fadak by Fatima (s) as a political move which represents opposition of Islam and belief against disbelievers and hypocrites. He believes that Fadak is a symbol of a significant goal and a full-scale revolution against the government of that time, which was founded in Saqifa by three people: [[Abu Bakr]], [[Umar b. Khattab]] and [[Abu Ubayda al-Jarrah]]. If Lady Fatima (s) was willing to reclaim Fadak as her heritage, she could have certainly brought a number of Shi'a Muslims in order to testify for her. According to the analysis presented by Baqir al-Sadr, Lady Fatima manifested her opposition to the government in 6 stages: | ||

Analyzing the Sermon of Fadakiyya, [[Dr. Shahidi]] writes: "It is clear that they ignored the core of her words and dealt with it as a speech that was only delivered in achieving her inheritance. Obviously, she did deliver her sermon for taking some date palms and sheaves of wheat. A household that give away the only food they have to feed the hungry, would not cry for their stomach. She wanted to keep the tradition ([[sunna]]) and the justice alive. She feared that the thoughts of the [[Ignorance Era]], which was hidden under the cover of Islam, comes to light again; and tribal prides comes to existence. Today it is Banu Tamim's turn and tomorrow Banu 'Uday's and then Banu Umayya's, who fought Islam with all they got and embraced Islam not by heart, but only by tongue as they did not have any other option." | Analyzing the Sermon of Fadakiyya, [[Dr. Shahidi]] writes: "It is clear that they ignored the core of her words and dealt with it as a speech that was only delivered in achieving her inheritance.
