Shahrbanu (or Shahr Banu), is a mythical personage described in weak historic sources to have been the eldest daughter of Yazdegerd III, the last Emperor of the Sassanid dynasty of Persia/Iran.
Allegedly, she was captured by the Muslims after the fall of Persia during the reign of Caliph Umar ibn Khattab.
In history, twelver Shi'a Muslims, the great number of whom are Iranians, take great pride in their belief that the majority of the Shia Imams, from the fourth to twelfth and final, are thus descended from the pre-Islamic royal family of Persia.

 Simin Daneshvar - Persian Literature, Mage Publishers-Books
In Bibi Shahr Banu, Daneshvar cleverly depicts the actual lives of her characters, juxtaposed against the lives they wished they could have had.
Although Daneshvar underscores the social factors contributing to the unfortunate situation of women, she nevertheless maintains her objectivity, at times turning her critical eye upon the individual.
Her characters provide role models that are both positive (Zari in Savushun, Maryam in Bibi Shahr Banu, Kokab Sultan in To Whom Can I Say Hello?), as well as negative (Nadia in The Accident, Anis in Anis, the girl in The Playhouse).

He has considered the marriage of al-'Imam al-Husayn with Shahr Bana as the factor responsible for the transference of this belief to Shi'i thought.
Fifthly, if we examine the story of Shahr Banu's marriage with al 'Imam al-Husayn (A) on the basis of historical evidence, this marriage and al-'Imam al-Sajjad's birth to an Iranian princess is of doubtful authenticity.
In this case also the entire story of the marriage of a daughter of Yazdgerd called `Shahr Banu' or something else with al-Husayn ibn `Ali (A) and her being the mother of al-'Imam al-Sajjad (A) is doubtful from the viewpoint of historical evidence.
