The points bought up are ridiculous.
Unmarried girls in the Ummah of EVERY prophet are his daughters. Allah (swt) in this ayah is referring to the girls in our Ummah. Are you trying to tell us that unmarried girls should not cover themselves since this verse, according to your interpretation, excludes them?
The main concern in, Rasoolallah (saw) did not mention them as much in comparison to Bibi Zahra (sa). She is also the only one to have any continual lineage, so the argument is inconsequential as we follow the sunnah taught to us by His (saw) bloodline.
This argument is split up within us. Some say there were daughters and some say there were not. There were daughters without a doubt, as far as I know, maybe somebody else can correct me, if anybody wants to, since this thread is totally pointless, and this will be my only post on this matter.
All I want to know is, where were these daughters during the event of Mubahila?
فَمَنْ حَاجَّكَ فِيهِ مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا جَاءَكَ مِنَ الْعِلْمِ فَقُلْ تَعَالَوْا نَدْعُ أَبْنَاءَنَا وَأَبْنَاءَكُمْ وَنِسَاءَنَا وَنِسَاءَكُمْ وَأَنْفُسَنَا وَأَنْفُسَكُمْ ثُمَّ نَبْتَهِلْ فَنَجْعَلْ لَعْنَتَ اللَّهِ عَلَى الْكَاذِبِينَ {61}
[3:61] But whoever disputes with you in this matter after what has come to you of knowledge, then say: Come let us call our sons and your sons and our women and your women and our near people and your near people, then let us be earnest in prayer, and pray for the curse of Allah on the liars.
In the above verse (3:61), according to what Jabir Ibn Abdillah al-Ansari (the great companion of the Prophet) said, the word “sons” refers to al-Hasan and al-Husain, the word “women” refers to Fatimah, and the word “our selves” refer to the Prophet and Ali. Thus Ali is referred as “the self” of the Prophet (Nafs of the Prophet).

Sahih Muslim: Book 031, Number 5955:
'A’isha reported that Allah’s Apostle (may peace be upon him) went out one norning wearing a striped cloak of the black camel’s hair that there came Hasan b. 'Ali. He wrapped hitn under it, then came Husain and he wrapped him under it along with the other one (Hasan). Then came Fatima and he took her under it, then came 'Ali and he also took him under it and then said: Allah only desires to take away any uncleanliness from you, O people of the household, and purify you (thorough purifying)
Even if the sons of Rasoolallah (saw), Tahir, Ibrahim, and Qasim were alive and were not under the cloak, they would not be part of Ahl al-Kisa. Just as the other daughters were not.
As for marrying Uthmaan, just because they were wives of Uthman doesn’t mean the Prophet (saw) married them to him. Keep in mind that both Ruqayyah and Umme Kulthoom were previously married, and Islamically it was not required of them to seek consent from their father before marrying anyone.
Whatever you want to say, it is apparent which daughter of Rasoolallah (saw) had the higher merit in Islam and its history, who Surah Kawthar was a special sign about. It’s undeniable that Fatima Zahra (sa) had a special place in the heart of Rasoolallah (saw).
Even though Fatima Zahra’s (sa) rank is not a reason to deny the existence of her sisters, the existence of her sisters isn’t a reason to deny her rank.
