Lifestyle and personality dimensions of Lady Masoumeh (A.S)
Hazrat Fatemeh Masoumeh (A.S.) had a lofty and eminent personality; the holy Ahlul Bayt (A.S.) pointed out her glory and reverence. Not only before her birth, but also before the birth of her honorable father, some Imams (A.S.) remarked her, and they referred to her high status, some of which are mentioned here.
Imam Sadiq (A.S.), in a hadith, before the birth of this elegant progeny, spoke of the virtues of her pilgrimage and shrine, drawing the attention of Shi’a Muslims to her and noted: “The city of Qom is our shrine, in which a woman from my offspring is/will be buried, the name of whom is Fatemeh and whoever visits her, paradise is for him…”
Now we indicate to some virtues which show her greatness among others offsprings. One of her virtues was her knowledge about Islam and the household’s sciences. She was one of the narrators of traditions and there are some narrations that we can see her name in their documents. Professor Amini in his noble book, Alghadir, has cited to some of these traditions; for example, she has narrated the famous tradition “Ghadir” that denotes her eminent position.
In addition, after Lady Fatima, any women hasn’t achieved Doomsday intercessor rank like Hazrat Masoome (Peace be upon her). All these statements indicate significant wisdom, dignity, and grandeur of this honorable lady of Islam.
Surely, because of these moral features, she has achieved this dignity, because lmam Musa Kazim (pbuh) had 37 children, and just this honurable lady outshines like ornament among them. Neither of her siblings are equal to her (or are not her balance either).
Imam Sadiq (pbuh) says: Know that Qom is my adytum and my children’s adytum after me. A lady of my children is going to pass away there. She is Musa ’s daughter.
