Fatimah the Resplendent One (may Allah be pleased with her)

My sister came across an article on Fatima az-Zahraa (The Resplendent One) and posted it as a note on Facebook. The article was from:

Do have a read of it as it is a detailed and somewhat lengthy account of Fatima(ra)'s life and the many hardships she faced. It also tells of her kindness and behaviour towards others. She truly was an amazing woman and an example for us all not only in her actions but also her 'endearing personality'.
