Fatima and the Daughters of Muhammad

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fatima and the Daughters of Muhammad (French Fatima et les Filles de Mahomet) is a book written by Henri Lammens (Rome and Paris: Scripta Pontificii Instituti Biblici, 1912), in which he claims that Fatima was not Muhammad's favourite daughter and that he did not intend that his succession should go through her children.[1] He also claims that Muhammad's household, the Ahl al-Bayt, consisted exclusively of his wives, to the exclusion of his blood relations.[2]
