== The importance of the book ==
It should be mentioned that in the book "Vaqai al-Ayyam fi Tetama Muharram al-Haram", Vaez Tabrizi Khiyabani has discussed the present book and said: "Mirza Razi Qazvini, the author of Tazalum Al-Zahra, and Agha Razi Qazvini, the author of Lisan al-Khas, are two authors of the same name. In a version of Tazalum Al-Zahra, which was published in 1312 AD, two narrations are mentioned, none of which is written by the author of the book, and both of them were confused at the time of copying. Another thing to consider is that the author of the book has quoted some words of Hazrat Zainab regarding the martyrdom of Imam Hussein, which is in no way in accordance with the great patience of that respectable lady, and over time, it has changed from a simple and popular language to a specialized language and from the form of verse to the form of prose, and the author has been very negligent in this position, Even though his book is reliable and he has provided evidence and documents for all his words."
