The answer

What is mentioned about the Companions burning Fatimah’s house and causing her miscarriage is a clear lie and slander, cast by Satan into the minds of sick individuals who harbor hatred for Islam. Slandering the Companions is slandering the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and claiming his failure in raising his Companions whom Allah Almighty purified. How can one imagine thousands of Companions, who loved the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and his household, turning into aggressors against the people dearest to him? This is inconceivable except to sick souls. Furthermore, this slander includes an attack on Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, and his children, given their bravery. How can it be accepted that Ali would remain silent about protecting his honor and home? This slander is demonstrably false by the sheer obviousness of reason, and whoever promotes it is a hateful deviant who attacks the entire religion of Islam.
