if i restore my iPhone will it delete the sim card data?

If i restore my iPhone will it delete my sim card data?

Just after i made a new password for my iPhone 5S(16GB), it has the latest IOS 9. I kept using my touch ID but my thumb failed to unlock my phone a number of times so it disabled it so i needed to use my password to go on my iPhone and to enable the touch ID but i forgot what i made my password... so i may need to restore my iPhone but i don't want it to delete my sim card data.

iPhone 5s, iOS 9.3.1, null

No. All the iPhone stores on the SIM card is carrier data.
