Shiites of Fatimah (PBUH) on the Day of Judgment
As the Messenger of Allah (PBUH&HP) has given glad tidings of Paradise to the Shiites of Amir al-Muminin (PBUH) and his Infallible descendents (PBUT) and praised their greatness and high status, likewise, he has given the glad tidings of
Shia means follower, devotee, and disciple; thus, Shiites of Amir al-Muminin (PBUH) are those who achieve guidance from him and are his followers in their intentions, morals, and actions all the time. Similarly, Shiites of Lady Fatimah (PBUH) are those who follow her in their lives and imitate her in all the aspects of their lives.
