Events unfold, and life takes many turns. Sons grow up to become fathers, and grandchildren grow into young, vibrant young sticks. It’s a generational novel that the seasoned author Naguib Mahfouz has always mastered. It takes us through the corridors of the monarchy, the Wafdist regime, and the Muslim Brotherhood, and from there to the revolution, Nasserism, and endless wars. At the end of the journey, there is openness and victory, followed by a less than glamorous peace at Camp David. These are the events of the homeland, but with this novel, we follow them in the old house in Helwan. We see them in “Kawthar,” “Mohamed,” “Munira,” “Siham,” “Shafiq,” “Ali,” and “Saniya,” who witnessed all of this with a reassured eye and a heart that never forgot the home and its walls yearning for renewal and life. Will things settle down and will time allow for what her heart yearns for? Will there be an hour or more between them? Is there a synonymous relationship between home and homeland?
There’s only one hour left.

Prisoner of Heaven
د.ا7.10After the shadow of the wind and the angel game, I ended my strange meeting with Carlos Zafon in the third part of the Tomb of Forgotten Books series in this piece that I read while trying to understand what was going on in his head, which wanted the prisoner of heaven to tell us the dark nights of Barcelona from the window of its prisons, that prison that embraced Martin for a long time and through which he excelled in writing The Game of the Angel, which was the hero of that novel David Martin and Isabella, and we got to know their end, which was not confirmed by the lines. The writer also explains that what we can consider a coincidence with us may be wisely studied and what we interact with with all honesty may be fake and obsolete as the first boot, the past is just images stuck in our heads and just a glance of it returns to expose itself, and opens new cracks in our hearts, pushing you to search and explore what the truth is and to what extent it can comfort you or in any proportion that may make you a wreckage between the legs, yet the search for it is The way of salvation,

My journey from doubt to faith
د.ا2.13I refused to worship God because I was immersed in worshipping myself and admired the flash of light that began to flash in my mind with the opening of consciousness and the beginning of the awakening from the cradle of childhood.
This psychological state was behind the controversial scene that recurs every day. I also missed the origins of logic and I am dealing with logic and I did not realize that I am contradicting myself as I recognize the Creator and then say who created the Creator and make him a creature at the time when I call him a creator, which is sophistry itself.
Moreover, to say a first cause of existence requires that this cause must exist in itself and not dependent or need others to exist. If a cause needs a cause, this makes it one of the causal links and does not make it a first cause.د.ا3.55 -
