Abstract
Fāṭima Zahrā (as) is a prominent model of the prophetic Sira and moral virtues in Islam. This study emphasizes the practical Sira of Zahrā (as) in achieving the most important moral virtues based on three fundamental Quranic concepts: Piety, justice, and patience. Piety is a state within an individual that provides spiritual and moral immunity, enabling the person to refrain from sin even when in a sinful environment. Justice has its roots in existence and human nature, encompassing all dimensions of the world. Patience and resistance is also the key to victories and progress. The present study aims a deeper understanding of the esteemed role of Zahra (as) in enhancing the ethical conduct of society. To this aim, each of the concepts of justice, piety, and patience was examined from the perspective of the Holy Quran, and then the dimensions of each of these concepts were considered in the practical Sira of Zahra (as). The findings of the research indicated that Zahrā (as), one of the greatest female figures in the history of Islam, is a remarkable example of the embodiment of these moral virtues, and her Sira can inspire our daily lives.
