Asma Bint Umays was always a pious lady, all along her life as she was one of the sincere followers and servants of Ahlul Bayt (A.S.). She never accepted bad deeds of others, but was patient and tolerant like the wife of Firaun, who was one of the great believing ladies despite the bad behaviour of her husband.
