Personality of Lady Fatima Al-Zahra (peace be upon her) (Model of Woman Leadership in Society)

Abstract

A noble home , whose foundation bricks are in line with faith in Allah Almighty and fragrance of His remembrance is always present , plays a significant role not only in nurturing promising children, but also in providing the best opportunities for all its members. Men and women are alike to fulfill all divine duties, except for what explicitly Sharia stipulates, as in the case of fighting for woman, or what runs counter to her canonical and divine role in managing the household. Educating women and the society is one of the most important necessities to revive the nation and bring His laws into effect. The revivalism for a righteous nation could be achieved with the concerted efforts of all hands and energies. When woman is well raised , they will provide a similar impetus to the revivalism of the nation , since her divine role is not limited to their own generation, but also extends to the promising generation through educating and leading the next generation.   

Today, there should be great revivalism to set women in the realm of leadership. This could be achieved by reminding them of the most wonderful leadership model in the history that excels at both fulfilling household duties and caring for the family affairs : Seida.  Fatima al-Zahra (peace be upon her) participates in the process of spreading the Islamic message, teaching and conveying what she heard from her father, the Messenger of Allah  (may Allah bless him and his family ) to Muslims.
