You are my mother's invitation, part 2
Nights without him are scary
Live oud
I want to tell you that you are the thing
The only one I wake up for every day
Live Oud Part Two
He came exactly as I wished. His features, his voice, his body scent, his shoulder made to support my head. His recklessness, his calmness, his madness, and everything I wished God would give me in someone.
I believed in you as love
I believed in you because you are the love that
Free from transience and annihilation
Because you are the love that satisfies chastity
Because you are the madness that pulled me from a life of luxury and extravagance to love
Modesty and humility
Because I knew you would be with me until
Our skins are turning gray
That's why I believed you were love.
My dream is Jewish
God's destiny was prepared for me, and I did not expect that, but God decreed it in the most beautiful way. Whenever I remember that pain, anxiety, and confusion, the distraction after strength, I look in front of me and wonder, what if she had not been my companion, what if he had not been. What if there had been no reason. Would I be this content today?
Al-Halwa neighborhood
A true Emirati story that took place in the capital, Abu Dhabi, between two characters bound by customs and traditions who did not expect their story to end.
Al-Helwa neighborhood, the second and final part
The writer tried to soften Reem's character, as she appears in this part in a softer and kinder way than she was in the first part. However, she is still a provocative character that is not recommended to get close to.
The heroine completes her university studies and despite this, she reaches the position of department manager and is promoted to executive manager. This is due to her lover’s wide connections and influence, which clearly demonstrates the significant impact of nepotism in our society. It is true that she tried to embellish the situation by exaggerating Reem’s intelligence at work and the amazement of her managers with the plans she presents, but this does not negate the fact that nepotism was the main reason.
I will give birth to a tribe from you
Between will and destiny lies the novel "I Will Give Birth to a Tribe from You" by Emirati novelist and poet Maryam Al Afad Al Mansouri. Through it, she opens a window from which she overlooks the unjust reality suffered by Arab women, forcing them to choose between reason and heart, and to arm themselves with patience until they are able to act, choose and confront, and so as not to turn into a feather in the wind of fate. This is the case of "Nouf", the heroine of the novel, who was exposed overnight to a traffic accident that forced her to prepare for a new life accompanied by a "wheelchair". After that day of the accident, "Nouf" seemed bound by this torment. She abandoned her university studies, withdrew from most of her friends, and her health deteriorated. She no longer saw anything but the details of the accident that captivated her greatly and was difficult to forget.
The satisfied mind
In this novel, politics usurped the eras of excuses and marginalized the reasons.
If you cannot bear the realistic saturation in it, leave it aside and do not read it, as it is not suitable for you.
