Fadak is a village in Hijaz, which had lush gardens with date palm trees which was conquered by Muslims after the Battle of Khaybar.

After Lady Fatima (a) gave evidence, Abu Bakr admitted that he was wrong and wrote a handwriting that no one should encroach on it. But Umar b. al-Khattab took the handwriting and tore it. In the al-Fadakiyya Sermon Lady Fatima (a) complained about this incident.The author has shed light on this dispute with authentic references from the history.
