Some Ideas on the References of Legendary Typology of The Holy Fā？ima

Historically Fā？ima the daughter of Mu？ammad b. ？Abd Allāh, the Prophet of Islam, by his first wife, Khadīja b. Khuwaylid has an ontological and eschatological meaning in Shī？ī thought. It is important to reveal the nature of this situation and to analyze the analogy with the Sacred Mary. Figure of Fā？ima is very different in the Shī？ī thought system. There is a system of thinking that transcends historical data. An image of the Sacred Fā？ima, which has an active role in both existential and eternal dimension is envisaged in this thought. This conception played a role in the institutionalization of the Imāmī Shī？ī theory within the Shī？ī tradition. Fā？ima’s charisma was organized in a similar way to the Saint Mary’s. This charisma has aspects of the hereafter such as intercession and mediation. This charisma also has worldly indicators of healing. Sacred Fā？ima and Mary is evaluated in a similar “ordeal” event. This analogy shows itself in various nomenclature, virginity, fertility, chastity, intercession, healing and fertility, becoming a celestial being, coming to the world as a divine being subjects. Finally on one hand Fā？ima figure is shaped as a spiritual source in a ahistorik structure, on the other hand, as in the notion of Virgin Mary, it took an iconographic form in the Shī？ī thought. Thus Fā？ima is conceived as an intercessor of wisdom, close to the mediatrix concept in Christianity in the Shī？ī thought system. Sacred Fā？ima was accepted as a source of healing and fertility. Especially this figure is impressed by Sacred Mary as much as she is influenced by “The Umayiyesi-Umay Ana Figure” in the Altaic area. As a result of this icon appeared in the form of “Hamsa: Hand of Fā？ima” in Shī？ī public.

Similarly this paper examines how Fā？ima has been transformed into a cult entity in Shī？ī thought. As a result of this transformation, Fā？ima’s image is used as a reference in the Shī？ī literature in formation of upper concepts such as Imāmī Shī？ism, custody and intercession.
