Iranian mother’s day falls on the anniversary of the birth of Fatimah, the youngest daughter of the prophet Muhammad and Khadija, the first of Muhammad’s wives.

The tweet was one of seven by Khameinei related to the Iranian mother’s day.

Khamenei praised Fatimah, also known as Hazrat Zahra, calling her “perfect role model for Muslim women.”

“With a grandeur & stature beyond human’s understanding & imagination, yet one of Hazrat Zahra’s roles was being a “mother, wife & housewife,” he also tweeted.

Khamenei seemed to criticize those he said “humiliate housewives,” who he said produce the “highest product in (the) universe,” human beings.

Some unaware deceived people humiliate housewives, while it means raising humans & producing highest product in universe i.e. human being.

He also tweeted that that “men and women are no different in some aspects like ‘spiritual ascension,’ ‘leadership power’ or ‘ability to guide humanity.’”
