Abstract

The issue of chastity of the wives of the Prophet of God is one of the issues that Shiite scholars, along with Sunnis, have taken for granted and have specified in their works. But the Takfiri elements tried to accuse all the Shiites of having such a false belief, under the pretext that a few people called Shiites had accused some of the women of the Prophet of immorality. In this way, in the story of Afk and slandering some people against the wife of the Messenger of God, Shiite commentators write in defense of his image. Therefore, this article intends to remind the opinions of the body of Shiite scholars that the wives of all prophets, including Rasul Khatam, are considered chaste, and emphasizes that the incorrect position of some members of a group should not be recorded in the name of all members. What is more, among the elders of non-Shiite religions, there are some thought-provoking sayings about the wives of the prophets that should not be generalized to the body of that religion.
