A woman went to the presence of Lady Fatimah saying, “I am an old and weak mother who makes a lot of mistakes in my prayer. I have been sent to you to know how to perform my prayer.”  Lady Fatimah said, “Ask any questions you wish.” The woman asked ten questions all of which were answered by Lady Fatimah with good miens. However, the woman was ashamed of her many questions; she said, “I will not bother you any more!”  Lady Fatimah said, “Ask any more questions.” In order to boost her morale, she said, “If a person is asked to carry a heavy load to a high place and he is given a hundred thousand Dinars as reward, will he feel tired in view of that reward?” The woman said, “No.”  Lady Fatimah (a.s) said, “I am rewarded by Allah more than it for every question which I answer. Hence, I never get tired. I heard Allah’s Messenger saying: On the Judgment Day, scholars will be in the presence of Allah and they will be rewarded to the extent of their knowledge and the efforts they have made for propagating Islam and guiding people.”Al-Mahajjah al-Bayda’: 30/1) Reference: Ahlalbayt TheCelestial Beings On The Earth
