◼️Fatima is Fatima

#Part_1

To begin with, I had wanted to comment upon the research of #Professor_Louis_Massignon about the #personality and complicated life of #Fatima (s.a). I had wished to refer to the deep and revolutionary #influence her memory evokes in Moslem societies, and the role she has played in the breadth of Islamic transformations. I agreed to answer the pertinent question of #womanhood which is extremely important today for our society.
Women who have remained in the #traditional_mould do not face the problem of identity and
women who have accepted the #new_imported_mould have solved the problem for themselves.
But in the midst of these two types of #molded_women, there are those who can neither accept their hereditary, traditional form nor surrender to this imposed new form. #What_should_they_do?
They want to #decide for themselves.They want to #develop themselves. They need a #model, an #ideal_example.For them, the problem of #Who_am_I? #How_do_I_become? is urgent.
#Fatima, through her own #being, answers their questions.

🔘 A man said in the presence of #Imam_Jafar_al_Sadiq (A):
“Allahu Akbar (God is Greater).”
✨Imam said: “Do you know what He is greater than?!”
The man said: “He is greater than everything.”
✨Imam said: “Then you limited him (as you compared Him with everything).”
He said: “So what should I say?!”
✨Imam explained: “Allahu Akbar means: #God is greater than #being_described.”
