i did not like Nawal el se3dawy coz in most of her Tv interviews she emphasized that Hijab is not in Islam till one day i was encouraged by some of her online fans to read for her before judging ..so i recently have bought her a book called (my papers...my life) from my reading i discovered that: she is a feminist from the first degree (just like me ,i don't like to be treated less than anyone just coz i am a girl and i defend my rights as a girl) she wrote about the earlier marriage ,the female gentile mutilation,and some horrible marriage traditions that used to happen in the past. she writes with a great courage that reaches to daring. i admired her writing so much ,her way and her courage coz people like her free us from ignorant habits we had and still have. i still disagree with her regarding the hijab but no pb..
