🔻 Search and find your role.
-🔻 It may be different from your existing talents.
🔸 #LadyFatimah (as) said in her supplication, “O God, give me the opportunity to do what You have created me for.” [Muhaj al-Da’awat, p. 141] This shows that everyone has been given a #role in this world and can’t play another’s role.
🔸For example, one person has the role of being a father and one is a mother. God may tell them, “You yourself won’t become anything special in your life, but your child will. The result of all your efforts is that your child will be successful.”
🔸If we don’t accept this principle [the division of roles in this world], we will always be caught up in competitions, jealousies, enmities, regrets and sorrows about the past. And our hollow wishes for the future will cause us to go astray.
🔸Sometimes your role is different from your #talents. For example, God has determined for a person to be a mother and train her children, although she may have the ability to be successful in other fields. There is no difference between men and women in this. Many are not willing to accept their role. Whoever follows his/her desires will leave his/her role and lose track of it.
🔸All the world tells you to work based on your talents. But Fatimah (as) told you to carry out the role and plan that God designed for you. If it doesn’t match your talents, ask God for that talent.
🔸It is narrated that Allameh Tabatabai in the start of his studies in the Islamic seminary wasn’t able to understand his lessons well. So he resorted to the Immaculate ones and God had mercy on him. If he had looked at his talent and thought that being a seminary student didn’t match his talent, he wouldn’t have reached such a high level. But he was patient and God granted the needed ability to him.
🔸The role of Zahra (as) in this universe is unique. For instance, her existence is effective in the being of all the Imams. The Prophet (s) told her, “O Fatimah, I give you the good news that Mahdi is from you.” [Mizan al-Hikmah, vol. 1, trad. no, 1261] The light of Fatimah (as) that exists in the being of Imam Mahdi (aj) shows her special, hidden role.
🌸Congratulations on Lady Fatimah’s birth anniversary.

📌 Why didn’t the people of Medina help Lady Fatima (as)?
One of the ugliest types of fears in society is “the fear of humiliation and being blamed" which is a psychological fear. This is worse than the fear of death or poverty that is used by dictators.
Which type of fear prevented the people of Kufa from helping Imam Husayn (as)? They were afraid that Yazid's army might come and kill all of them. But in the story of Lady Fatimah (as) and her asking for their help, what were the people afraid of that they did not respond to her? Did anyone threaten to kill them?
When Imam Husayn (as) called out, "Is there anyone to help me?" anyone who helped him would have been killed. But when Lady Fatima Zahra (as) cried out between the door and the wall, if anyone had helped her, he would not have been killed. Actually, Zubayr came with a sword to help her. They took his sword but they didn’t kill him.
In Medina, there was neither the fear of poverty nor the fear of being murdered. Instead, there was a psychological fear. The people of Medina were afraid of being blamed by others if they helped Fatima (as). They kept a very ugly, treacherous silence.
A negative psychological atmosphere was created against Imam Ali (as), which prevented the people from coming to help him. It is even narrated that one night many people promised to help Imam Ali (AS). But the next day they were afraid others might blame them for helping him, and so they didn’t come!
God is constantly busy with His servants
God is constantly busy with His servants. He is always busy preparing the ground for a servant’s growth, or preparing a situation for him to ask for forgiveness, or protecting him from calamities, or giving him a blessing.

📌 What was the reason for Lady Zahra’s (as) pains and loneliness?
Lady Zahra’s (as) pains were due to her understanding, her understanding of the future that people were building for themselves. She and her family were left alone because no one had their understanding.
People did not understand the dire consequences of not defending the truth. Actually, they were surprised by the intensity of Lady Zahra's (as) crying.

💫Lady Fatimah (as) describes an ideal society
◾️Want to know how it will be to live under Imam Mahdi’s (aj) eagerly awaited government? At the end of her life, Lady Fatimah (as) spoke of this with her deep understanding for the women of Medina:
◾️"If they had not gone away from the reins that the Prophet entrusted to him [Imam Ali], he would have guided them gently, and the nose of the camel of the government would not have been hurt nor would its rider have been shaken severely. [People would have lived in comfort.] He would have led them to a pure drinking fountain with water flowing from both sides, and the doors to the blessings of the earth and the sky would have opened for them.”
◾️So Fatimah (as) said if they had not taken the reins of the government from Imam Ali (as), he would have moved this caravan or camel of the government calmly. That is, ruling, living, and management in the Islamic society would have been with calm and peace!
◾️They used to put a ring in the nose of a camel to control it. If one pulled it hard but it resisted, it would be hurt. If you didn’t pull it and it didn’t come, what could you do? She explained that if Imam Ali had taken over the government, he would have led it in a way that everyone would have been satisfied and calm. This calm would have been such that the rider, the camel itself, and the one pulling it wouldn’t have been hurt by his management and all would have moved in harmony!
◾️What would the result be? Imagine the hot deserts of Hijaz when a spring is discovered. See her beautiful description. There would have been so much water that it would have flown on both sides in two rivers! This water cools a person in that heat and is even too much for one to drink! The government governed by a Guardian will take you to a fountain where everyone can live happily and drink deeply.
◾️Lady Zahra (as) suffered and was martyred for such a society. This is an image of the ideal society under Imam Mahdi’s rule and Guardianship. We should know that religion has such a vision. Our religiosity and the understanding of this is effective in building that ideal society.

❤️ Remember your mother today
Lady Fatimah Zahra (as) said, “Always be at the service of your mother, because heaven is under the feet of mothers. The result will be heavenly blessings.”
The birthday of Lady Fatimah Zahra, who is the mother of all of us, is a good opportunity for us to follow her advice and show our love to our mother. Maybe a call, a visit, a gift or any other way you can show your love to her.
If your mother has passed away, you can make her happy with a spiritual gift. Read some Qur’an for her, or do good deeds for her.
