More than a decade after the publication of “Thus She Killed Scheherazade,” Joumana Haddad returns with her scathing commandments in “Scheherazade’s Last Commandments.” This time, the feisty Lebanese poet and journalist writes commandments on marriage, motherhood, feminism, and the body. She challenges patriarchy, in both its glaring and hidden manifestations… In these chapters, she draws on personal and public experiences to share her thoughts on current issues, while questioning the meaning of feminism today. There are endless questions about the meaning of freedom, love, age, and other themes. The questions vary and diversify, but the only constant in this book remains the call for liberation from all the legacies that restrict women and men alike.

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
