The novel tells about one week in the life of the Vaikai family, which embodies the nature of their life for many years. Husband Aakush Vaikai lives with his wife and daughter Patcherta in a house in a small, dull town called Charsaj. The reader soon learns that Bachirta is no longer young, but is thirty-five years old, and that she is very mean, which represents a great concern for the parents; She may never find a husband for herself, and they have reached a very old age, and death may take them at any moment. So their main concern was to hide their daughter's blood and protect her from the world. Excitement is great now in the family; Patcherta is preparing to travel to Tarku Farm, where her uncle Bella's family lives, to spend a week with them, and she will be away from them for the first time. The parents prepare their daughter for travel with fearful thinking. The parents haven't been going anywhere for a long time, and haven't been together for years. They go to church alone, and the reason is Bachirta's ugliness, which exposes them to severe embarrassment because people make fun of her. The parents drop Bachirta at the train station and say goodbye to her. During the week, parents feel more relaxed than they have ever felt before. Yes, they miss their daughter, but now they can meet old friends and hang out again without fear of any embarrassment. One time, the husband was playing gambling with his friends and drinking in a restaurant. He was very late, and the wife waiting at home did not know where he was, because he used to come home sometime before midnight. When the husband returns home, he quarrels with his wife. In a slightly drunk state, he speaks very frankly about his daughter's condition, which calls for ridicule, and says that perhaps it is better for them that his daughter travel and not be at home. It is clear from the mother’s words that she knows that the husband is right, because their daughter is ugly and very ugly, and therefore it is difficult for her to adapt to society or find a place for herself in it, but nevertheless she strongly defends her daughter, and tries to spread hope in her husband, and even in herself first. The week passes, and the parents head together to the train station to receive their daughter. The train is late and they start thinking bad things, but Bachirta arrives in the end. The father feels that all is not well with Bachirta. He knows that his daughter was, in fact, a burden to everyone on her uncle's farm, and she could not adapt there and even Uncle Bella's guests did not accept her. Patcherta lies on her bed in her room and starts thinking. He was surprised that her being away from home was in vain. She learned that although they welcomed her at the farm with love and treated her kindly, she was an obstacle in everyone's way. She turns the pages of her life in front of her, which only involves cooking, washing, and cleaning all her days. She begins to sob, and so that her parents do not hear her crying, she covers her mouth with her pillow, which is what she has done all her life. The novel deals with an issue that is widespread in our Arab culture now, which is the delay in the age of marriage for girls and the fear of spinsterhood, and discusses it from the perspective of the prevailing culture in Hungary in the second half of the nineteenth century. The novel also addresses some of the behaviors that occurred in society in that period and were strange to it at that time. It is denounced by the majority of people, especially the elderly who grew up in a world with better morals.

About the book (Emirati Excellence) This book tells the story of the superiority of the United Arab Emirates, the country that emerged from a British mandate in the early seventies. Most of its people could not read and write, the houses were huts or mud houses, and there were no streets, bridges, or even a single university! Through an ambitious vision and long-term plan, this country was able to transform from a marginalized and weak country into an advanced country scientifically, economically and militarily, and to raise the average per capita income per year from $350 at the beginning of the union to more than $50,000, making it first in the Arab world and fourth in the world according to estimates by the International Monetary Fund. For the year 2013 AD. It is wrong to attribute the success of the UAE experience to the release of oil alone, as there are many countries that have enormous natural resources but have not progressed! The reason is its poor management. Through successful management, countries advance and achieve miracles, and not only with natural resources. This book reviews the reasons for excellence and the transition from difficult beginnings to great achievements. Walid Al Marzouki.

Based on this wish for all Arabs to read what they are able to read, from ancient heritage to modern antiquities, I returned to (The Epistle of Forgiveness) to place it in the hands of senior scholars, intermediate scholars, and those below that. But how do we return to it with passion, eagerness, and the ability to benefit from it after readers have moved away from it until there is no place left for it except in the farthest corners of libraries because it cannot be read no matter how much we tempt people to read it? Would they not be repulsed by it and flee from it as they would from a heavy burden, even if you gave them a generous reward for reading it? Here I came up with an idea that I hope will resonate well with people and students of culture, which is to reformulate it.
It was necessary to include the text (Ibn al-Qarih’s letter) because the letter of forgiveness was a response to it. It is not possible to understand (forgiveness) without considering the message of (Ibn Al-Qarih). I treated it in the same way of paraphrasing so that the two messages fit together.
