It was under the protection of her connection to Allah as well as faith and piety, that she was afraid of nothing and nobody. But her bravery was mixed with affection and linked with kindness and mercy towards the servants of Allah. She made use of her bravery on the way of piety and made benefit from it on the direction of her aim. Fatima’s Piety: Fatima (peace be upon her) has got piety and moral chastity and tries to keep away not only from sin but even from sin misgivings.

Even when a blind man came to see the Prophet (peace be upon him and his descendants), Fatima (peace be upon her) cared about her hijab. Once, the Prophet (peace be upon him and his descendants) knocked at the door to enter her house with his guest.

Fatima (peace be upon her) answered, “I do not have hijab to cover my head; therefore, she covered herself with the corner of the bed sheet not to be exposed in view.” She cares about all her behaviors and deeds, her food, her repose, her house chores, her speech, etc. She cares about her voice to be the symbol of Quran verse: “فلا تخضعن بالقول”, and her moving not to be exposed to the dangerous view of those who bear malice in their hearts.

While caring about her piety and moral chastity, she is thinking of social responsibility, and this fact does not prevent her from social duties. As a result, considering the Islamic measures, she achieves her duties, too. Fatima’s Patience and Resistance: She is tolerant and patient and does not give up or withdraw in front of the destructive flood. She protects herself in front of the social pressures and corruption and does not yield.

She is the champion of patience and has passed all her exams with flying colors on this way. We read in her supplication: “يا ممتحنه امتحنك الله فوجدك لما امتحنك صابرة” Allah has set the seal of approval on her life report. She is resistant in front of the brutality of life, poverty, disappointment, and wants and patient in front of the pains, caused by the negligence of Omma. The difficulties cannot make her yield and the enemies’ strokes cannot disappoint her.

She was tortured by the Ghoraish polytheists for years, but never complained or got restless. She also tolerated the hardships and shortsidedness, caused by the enemy and even the reprimands of the aristocratic women, both in her father’s house and in her husband’s for years. Fatima’s Forbearance and Self-Possession: She was forbearing and meek.
