A Woman's Roots

When the roots are exposed, the foundations are unraveled, and the constants are shaken, the pen begins to search for the lines.

A Woman’s Roots is a true account of a woman’s life, which begins with luxury and prosperity, grows with oppression and injustice, and ends with ingratitude and denial.

Bin Arraf

You live on the ground, so days will go by you for a long time in your view (only an illusion). Everything in the road calls you and sends you signals that point you in the walking direction and the right way. You find signs on every road pointing you where you want to go, and signs to cross, stop, slow down or change direction. Alia followed the example of my path and your path, and many signs stopped her. She even began to identify them and harmonize with them, and perhaps harmonize and understand the meanings of the signs of life in order to answer many questions that were hidden. Then she left with the range spreading in front of her eyes on her trip to the Badia. If you, dear reader, are excited by the signs of life, learning through the stories, penetrating the worlds, and have the curiosity to know them and to succeed in deciphering the mystery of life, then I promise you that you will enjoy with us the flow between the lines of Alia’s journey to the Badia, stay with it!

Revealing The Sick Self

Imitating feelings and emotions and their impact on oneself is the most difficult representation that one can express. Letters in the presence of sorrows practice the temptation of equivocation and concealment, evading cunningly so as not to get involved in blogging, and blogging is the awakening of memory if the skill is refined.

Complexity is a prominent human characteristic, not only in behaviors, emotions, actions, and responses, but also in trying to understand and comprehend them, and the most complex is the attempt to translate them on paper that desperately refuses to defeat the whiteness of its pages.

We do not know where the betrayal comes from, is it from our surroundings or from our dark insides? Or from an undeclared alliance between the fragility of feelings and the growing confidence? But what is certain is that it results from a vast and incomprehensible void in human relations.

Through this text that falls within the literature of self-reflection, we try to dissect human suffering resulting from betrayal, and portray contradictory feelings, and conflicting feelings, by diving into the mysteries of the ailing self, and its reflection on reality, and monitoring its exciting paradoxes, socially, economically and morally. A discussion of human wounds that refuse to heal.

The Nostalgia That Did Not Go Away

From the corners of schools, corridors of hope, semesters of excellence and yards of creativity.

From the prayer room, the library, the laboratory and the canteen.

From the administration rooms, and the drawers of the teachers.

Inspired by the scattered memories, I formulate and dedicate these stories to motivated generations at the beginning of each new academic year.

The Narrative Structure In Shaykha Al-Nakhi's Fiction

The book is an analytical study of the fictional literature of Shaykha Al-Nakhi. The idea of studying the narrative structure in the writings of the writer Sheikha Al-Nakhi, came as a sign of the era of social transformation in the United Arab Emirates from the pre-oil period to the post-oil period, and the social and cultural progress that accompanied this transformation in the Emirates' journey.

The book in itself is considered a qualitative addition to the critical experience, an approach to Emirati feminist literature, and a stimulus for researchers and a guide in their critical treatment of this literature.

This study consists of an introduction, five chapters and a conclusion. The introduction acts like a prelude that monitors the development of cultural life in the UAE, and draws the narrative scene in terms of foundation and leadership. It also shows the cultural and intellectual formation of Shaykha Al-Nakhi in an attempt to show her literary position in the world of the short story.

Wanderers Of Nostalgia

Nostalgia is all that was before souls, places and trees were transformed… Before beaches disappear from your country map… Every beautiful quality that has been uprooted by history to turn it into the ugliest… Before your heart is broken for the first time or for the thousandth time… Everything before your disappointments… (Searching for a little joy from the past, when the present doesn’t give you something better)

Al Hawla: Fearsome Tales

Al-Hawla is an echo of the desert stories in the depths of the valleys of Al-Bawadi. A true story where the events take place somewhere between Bayatah in the north and Sa’raa in the south, and then go back and forth and folds in its sandy pages of the history of that era, which was scattered in the valleys of the Emirates one hundred years before the publishing this book. Here are the feelings of orphanhood and tragedy, then launch and love, then coexistence and challenge, ideas of persistence and knowledge, and prevailing beliefs, deep conviction, morals and principles rooted in souls, awareness, and human knowledge that rises in human beings at every moment since eternity. True stories with real names from everywhere, they came and each had a soul to carry and letters to draw, whether on land, sea or mountain. What the narration of the novel requires at the disposal of the writer; To know, dear reader, that “read” is the beginning of everything, and “moving straight” is the way, and “patience” is the provision and equipment until you see banners that say “I will win a great victory.”
