The greatness of women and their rights

In response to a question from one of my patients about the link between society and women, I said:
In general, in which masculinity tendencies prevail, and in which women are accused in all cases, even if they were a usurper and a violation of their rights, and in particular between men and women, the society is exposed to new waves of backwardness by violating her freedom by verbal harassment, touching her or looking down on her and violating her body with what they call purity In science, it is the mutilation of her genitals without her permission. Or forcing her to marry when she was a child and concealing her identity in the name of protection, and depriving her of her right to continue her married life by repealing a law granting her this right.
I found myself thinking and saying to myself: What is the link between society and women but a cultural affinity? There is a collective split personality, in which the mother woman is revered and respected, and everyone boasts that Egypt is the mother of the world, and at a time when he accuses her and violates her rights even if she was usurped and wants to hide her from the eyes; Because it is the mother of evil in a backward masculine look.
I thought about the fact of the male invention; The idea that the exodus from Heaven was due to the seduction of women, which the ancient beliefs dressed up as the cause of human misery; So I asked my educated friend about this, doubting that Eve was the reason for man’s exodus from Paradise in the first place, as the legends taught us and those who claim to be religious. Because I did not find a reference for that in the Qur’an.
My educated and religious friend told me:
My friend, man’s exit from Paradise and his descent to earth was for the completion of his creation, and not as a punishment for a sin he committed. If he remained without exercising his ability to choose, he would have been created like all other creatures. And what had an added value God gave him, and he asked the rest of his creatures to prostrate to him. God has distinguished him with reason and the ability to choose, even if he makes a mistake. He was the perfection of his creation when he chose and erred, so God sent him down to the earth; To complete what was created for him.
I said: This is a new entry for me that contradicts the usual view that Adam’s descent to the earth was a punishment for violating the command of his Lord.
She said:
This is the beauty of thinking and the breadth of its limits over time; For example, I read what you wrote about mitochondria, and I did not know what it was, and I was astonished by your scientific approach in linking your appreciation for Eve as distinct from Adam, integrating with your integrated social and cultural vision.
I told her:
The source of energy in each of the six trillion cells in every human body is a nano-organ called the mitochondria. It is the only organelle in creation that is inherited from the mother only, and not from the mother and father; Because the mother is the origin, and the mother is the only source of energy for man, whether male or female.
She said: I will add to you, that I searched, sir, and did not find the word Eve in the entire Qur’an, nor in the sacred hadiths classified as authentic. But I found that God, Glory be to Him, created a soul (which is a feminine word) and created from it its husband (a word that bears femininity and masculinity), so I imagined the creation of the flower (which is feminine) and the masculine organ in it created itself, so it becomes a double-sex flower that is self-pollinating (and the self is feminine as well). Since the soul, the self, and the husband are all feminine, then they are the origin, and the masculine husband is the one who was created from her, and the word (Adam) mentioned in the Qur’an is nothing but a scientific name for this dual being from which creation began. In a genetic mutation, it split into two entities, as did flowers; And the interpretation of the verse: “And O Adam, dwell you and your husband in Paradise, so eat as you like” as a letter addressed to Muthanna for this bisexual being of female origin. God knows. For the record, the masculine thought holds that the woman was created from Adam’s rib. It does not differ from what I say except that Adam is a scientific name that could be a man or a woman or both!!
Perhaps, my friend, you have anatomy and genetics – according to what you say – in which there are statements in support or opposition to this idea based on the logic of pure linguistic analysis, and God knows best.
I told her with a smile, remembering our fifty years of friendship:
You taught me the beauty and purity of friendship with women.
She said: Increase your thinking…
I said: Friendship with a woman is all love and peace of mind.. The beautiful thing about friendship with a woman is that there is no blame in her and there is no need to justify an act or absence.. Friendship gets rid of the pressures of marriage, and it is possible to partner in it, and it does not require pleasing the friend, but rather being as you are. .
In friendship between a man and a woman there is a trust that is not tested in every shot, and a love that does not take a test because it does not need a certificate to prove it.
I appreciate the love, chastity and joy of friendship, the strength, permanence, and freedom of friendship.
She said what about the Egyptian woman in particular??
I said: About the Egyptian woman in particular, I do not find anything better than studying history…
The Egyptian woman is great and extraordinary as she is a mother, a peasant and a worker; And when she was given education, she excelled and excelled, and when she headed the country in our Pharaonic history, she was inspired and led. And when she married the prophets, such as Abraham and Muhammad, she gave birth to the grandfather of the Arabs, Ismail, and when she decided, she protected Moses from being killed; The Jews would not exist without the wife of Pharaoh, who embraced and brought up. The Egyptian woman has the genes of civilization and capabilities that must be liberated from backward restrictions imposed on her by seclusion behind men..
Egyptian women bet that the important ones are raised.. their heads are high on the clouds.. she sits on the throne of Egypt next to her king.. and sometimes she sits with her majesty alone on the throne..
– And when the Egyptian woman sat on the throne of Egypt.. Hatshepsut ruled the Egyptian state for 21 years.. During that time, she made Egypt the greatest military power in the world.. The Egyptian economy reached an unprecedented level.. and its temple bears witness to this, which is considered the destination for those seeking Egypt’s greatness and greatness!! !.
– Even when the Egyptian sang… She became the planet of the East… The strongest vocal cords for a woman in the world… She is Mrs. Umm Kulthum… She sang for lovers… She sang for the guarded Egypt… She traveled all over the world to raise money for her country with her voice, so she deserved respect and appreciation.
And the Egyptian woman herself piloted the first plane in Egypt, and her voice rose above the voice of men in the 19th revolution, and then in the 30th of June revolution, she is now a scientist, doctor, nurse, teacher, artist and writer.
A young dreamer said to me sadly: But we inherit half the man, Doctor, is this not negative discrimination against us?
I said: The woman inherits half of the man, so she can save it all for herself and not spend anything from it, and the man remains responsible for all the spending, otherwise he has no guardianship; That is, the rights of a man towards the people of his household and his family are contingent on spending, which revolves with him in existence and non-existence. Men are the guardians of women by what God has given some of them over others and what they spend of their money, and preference, as I understand it, is knowledge and knowledge.
Another young man said: So, it is a competition between women and men in what is available from the livelihood.
I said: Rather, it is an integration between human beings to create new livelihoods and strength for the community; To use all his energies, not just half of it.
Another young woman said: But what protects women at this time from male tyranny?
I said: Knowledge is knowledge, knowledge and knowledge. Every family should arm its daughters with science and knowledge; There is no way to protect rights but that.
To all the women of Egypt…
…to all the ladies of Egypt..
To all the greats of Egypt..
The whole world bows, but out of respect.. your past is a civilization recorded on the first pages of history..
The greatness of your present is unmistakable by the eyes of onlookers.
The future is lit by the sun of your beautiful existence;
Do not bow before the ignorance of some and the shallow thinking that wants to return you to the darkness of history.
