on the anniversary of the decease of Aqeela Bani Hashem Zainab Kobri (P.B.U.H); It is necessary to recognize her great personality and the analysis of the unique dimensions of Hazrat Zainab for the members of the Islamic community, especially women. Therefore, using the valuable thoughts of the Grand Ayatollah Javadi Amoli, some of the most important aspects and characters of her noble personality is presented in this writing.

The secret for the title Aqilah Bani Hashem for the Zaynab Kubri (peace be upon her).

It is obvious we are in need of explaining the status and position of this great lady of Islam as the narrator and author of the epic of Karbala and it is undeniable, therefore, the great commentator of the Holy Quran, Grand Ayatollah Javadi Amoli, explained the character of Aqeela Bani Hashem and the philosophy of his fame as the Aqeela Bani Hashem

 "It should be said about the fame of that lady to Aqeela Bani Hashem. Some people are not wise and are looking to attain wisdom; Some are wise, and for them wisdom is not a nature, sometimes they lose it in their action. It is not a long-lasting description [rather] sometimes it is and sometimes it is not; Some are wise and for them wisdom is a part of their nature; And some are wise, and for them wisdom is firm in their nature.

Those for whom reason is part of their nature, the word "Aqilah" is expressing their whole existance. Hussain bin Ali (peace be upon him) is "Aqeelat Bani Hashem" and Zainab Kobra (peace be upon her) is also "Aqeelat of Bani Hashem"; the "ta" is for expression of the exaggeration. It is not for the feminine form. When they say that man is the caliphat of Allah, it is the same. Adam is Caliphat of Allah, not Caliph of God, why? Because this "Ta" is an exaggeration. The same way as we say, a person is Allameh. Therefore, to both Hussain bin Ali (peace be upon him) and Zainab Kobra is the Aqeelat of Bani Hashem; For them, reason was the most important nature. If reason is the firm nature of someone, perfections will come from this nature. That nature follows that person. Some are saved by their nature [but] some people preserve that nature; Allah, the most holy did not say about the existence of the blessed Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that you have a great character or you built a great character; Rather, he said: "Indeed, you are on a great character" [1] because that Prophet was the master of justice and virtue. Some people try so virtue does not leave them, and some people try to preserve virtue. If the essence of a human rises and becomes the caliph of Allah and becomes luminous, a great nature will emerge from his luminous essence. He said: "Indeed you are on a great nature" meaning you have authority over that nature and that nature is at your disposal. Not that you become perfect with morality. The perfection of morality is what is originates from you. About some people, the Holy Qur'an has said: «فَهُوَ عَلَی نُورٍ مِن رَبِّهِ»؛[2]This verse means those who move with light like ordinary people who carry a lamp; But some people are bright and wherever they are, there is light. Regarding such people, the expression of Holy Qur'an is «فَهُوَ عَلَی نُورٍ مِن رَبِّهِ» which means the light is under their feet; for some light is their vehicle and they are riding on the light.

 The sun dominates and rides on light; Not light is riding on the sunshine. The sun is created on light; it is "علی نور".  Because the light is from the sun, but the space and this time is bright with light. This time itself does not have light, but it takes light from the sun, but the sun itself, "علی نور من ربه," was created. The Aqilah of Bani Hashem is dominated the wisdom and wisdom is at her disposal. She is so strong that knowledge and wisdom as "the thing which Allah is worshiped by it"«ما عُبد به الرحمن»، [3] is subjugated by their power; Therefore, if someone – Inshallah- reaches the place where he is first wise, then he becomes Aqeel, and then he becomes Aqeelat. it becomes an example of «فَهُوَ عَلَی نُورٍ مِن رَبِّهِ» [4]. First, one should try to be wise; Wise is a subject noun. Then one become "Aqeel" which means it is a firm nature. It means this attribute indicates stability. After this, it is the turn of Aqeelat. "Ta" in Aqilah is "ta" of exaggeration. Zainab Kobra and Hussain bin Ali (peace be upon them) were Aqeelat of Bani Hashem. If we want to talk about wisdom, we must evaluate the way, tradition, and spirit of these holy beings, recognize and accept them; Do what they say and pass it on to others.

The life of Imam Hossein movement is indebt of the courage of Hazrat Zainab

Among the important attributes of the Hazrat Zaynab, we can point to the key rule of Hazrat Zeinab in conveying the teachings of Karbala to future generation and saving and protecting this movment. Therefor Ayatollah Javadi said, "when Hazrat Zeinab said «نحیی معه و نموت معه» “We live with him and we die with him” is for the past?!  Therefore, we should not think beginning of her rules is just after Ashura. It is wrong to think just the misery and captivity of Ahlulbayt are related to Hazrat Zeinab because when the letter arrived to Imam Hussain (P.B.U.H) from the Governor of Madinah on the way from Makkah to Karbala Hazrat Zeinab made statement. This letter proposed to send the women and children of this caravan to Madinah. But from behind the curtain Zainab Kubri (P.B.U.H) roared like a lion and said: "What is this proposal?"  «نحیی معه و نموت معه». So, her principle is like Ali Akbar (P.B.U.H), and the Qamar of Bani Hashim. This lady is like Ali Akbar. No one should think her rule starts after the Ashura, but from the beginning until the end of Imam Hussein movement is founded by Imam Hussein and Hazrat Zeinab (P.B.U.T)

Hazrat Zainab (P.B.U.H) is the true expression of Imam Ali speech and discourse

It is obvious, for a real and deep understanding of Hazrat Zainab, peace be upon her, the words of her in different historical periods should be analyzed and reconsidered, but her fiery sermons in Kufa and Sham should be considered as one of the key indicators in her high status for saving the true Islam of the Prophet and the tradition of Imam Ali. Therefore, Grand Ayatollah Javadi Amoli explained this issue as follows, "what is said about Hazrat Zainab (P.B.U.H) speaks like Hazrat Ali (P.B.U.H), is not only in her articulateness and eloquence, but also in her content.  So, in the official letter of Hazrat Ali (P.B.U.H) to Muawiyah, he said you are "tulaqa" and the sons of tulaqa, this saying of Hazrat Ali (P.B.U.H) said to Yazid by Hazrat Zeinab in Sham «امن العدل یابن الطلقا» [5] (O son of the liberated!) It means that you have been freed by us. you were our slaves and we freed you. So, this is Hazrat Zainab who speaks like Hazrat Ali (P.B.U.H).

The mystical status of Hazrat Zainab (P.B.U.H)

Grand Ayatollah Javadi Amoli, explaining the famous phrase of Hazrat Zainab (P.B.U.H) that is « ما رایت الا جمیلا» [6] (I saw nothing but beauty), expresses one of the most important dimensions and mystical characteristics of that Hazrat and said, "This phrase Hazrat Zainab, peace be upon her, in Kufa and in front of Ibn Ziyad's biting scoffs, is based on practical monotheism because she did not say, "I will be patient" or she did not said, "I saw beauty", it means I saw something good, but he limited his answer and said, "we saw nothing but beauty".  this sentence is from someone whom Imam Sajjad (P.B.U.H) said about her as the Imam of her time and Allah's Waly on earth: "«أنتِ بِحَمدِ اللّه‏ِ عالِمَةٌ غَيرُ مُعَلَّمَةٍ، فَهِمَةٌ غَيرُ مُفهَّمَةٍ ". 7]"; [O Zainab!] Praise be to Allah; you are a scholar who has not been taught by anyone and you have knowledge that you have not learned from anyone." This statement of Imam Sajjad (P.B.U.H) should be considered as a kind of testimony of her infallibility and Wilayat.
