Women are the origin and the chapter – By Hossam Badrawi

On Women’s Day I say
Women are the origin
It is the chapter
Written by Hossam Badrawi
In response to one of my patients’ questions about the link between society and women, I said:
In general, in which masculine tendencies prevail, and in which women are accused in all cases, even if they are raped and their rights are violated, and in particular between men and women, society is exposed to new waves of backwardness by violating their freedom through verbal or physical harassment, or the view of their inferiority and the violation of their body in a way that They call it purity, which in science is mutilation of her genital organs without her permission, or forcing marriage on her in childhood and concealing her identity in the name of protection, and depriving her of her right to continue her married life by repealing a law that grants her this right.
I found myself thinking and saying to myself: What is the link between society and women other than a cultural correlation? There is a general schizophrenia in which the mother woman is revered and respected, and everyone brags that Egypt is the mother of the world, and at a time when society accuses her, violates her rights even if she is raped, and wants to hide them from the eyes; Because it is the mother of all evils in a backward masculine view.
And I thought about the fact that males were invented; The idea that the exit from Paradise was due to the temptation of women, which ancient beliefs attributed to the cause of human misery; So I asked my educated friend about this, doubting that Eve was the reason for man’s expulsion from Paradise in the first place, as myths and pretended religiosity teach us. Because I did not find a reference for that in the Holy Quran.
Man’s exit from Paradise and his descent to Earth was due to the completion of his creation, and not as a punishment for a sin he committed. If he had remained without exercising his ability to choose, he would have been a creature like all other creatures. What had an added value was given to him by God, and He asked the rest of His creatures to prostrate to Him. God distinguished him with reason and the ability to choose even if he made a mistake. His creation was completed when he made a choice and made a mistake, so God sent him down to earth. To complete what he was created for.
It is true that this is a new introduction to me that contradicts the usual view that Adam’s descent was the result of his sin, which is what my mind sees. Human life cannot exist as a result of a mistake.
This is the beauty of thinking and the expansion of its limits over time.
I would like to add to the reader that the source of energy in each of the trillions of cells in every human body is a nano-device called the mitochondria, which is the only organelle particle inside every cell 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 sole source of energy for a human being, male or female.
I searched, but I did not find the word Eve in the entire Qur’an, nor in the holy hadiths classified as authentic. But I found that God Almighty created a soul (which is a feminine word) and created from it its husband (which is a word that can be feminine and masculine), so I imagined the creation of a flower (which is feminine) and created an organ in it that reminds itself of itself, so it becomes a self-fertilizing bisexual flower (and the self is also feminine). Since the soul, the self, and the spouse are all feminine, they are the origin, and the masculine spouse is the one who was created from them, and the word (Adam) mentioned in the Qur’an is nothing but a proper name for this dual being from whom creation began. In a genetic mutation, it split into two entities, as happened to flowers. The interpretation of the verse is: “O Adam, inhabit you and your wife in Paradise, and eat wherever you wish,” as being a speech addressed to the dual of this dual-sexed being of female origin, and God knows best.
For your information, male thought believes that women were created from Adam’s rib. It does not differ from what I say except that Adam is a proper name that could potentially be a man, a woman, or both!!
This is an idea based on the logic of pure linguistic analysis, and God knows best. I do not decide, but I think!
She said: What about Egyptian women in particular??
I said: Concerning Egyptian women in particular, I do not find anything better than a history lesson…
The Egyptian woman in particular is great and extraordinary in that she is a mother, a farmer, and a worker. When she was given education, she excelled and excelled, and when she presided over the country in our Pharaonic history, she inspired and led. When she married the prophets like Abraham and Muhammad, she gave birth to the grandfather of the Arabs, Ishmael, and when she decided, she protected Moses from being killed. The Jews would not have existed had it not been for Pharaoh’s wife, who embraced and raised them. Egyptian women are genes of civilization and capabilities that must be liberated from backward restrictions that forced them to isolate themselves behind men.
Egyptian women see them holding their heads high… their heads touching the clouds… sitting on the throne of Egypt next to its king… and sometimes she sits in her greatness alone on the throne… moving armies with her finger… and controlling the destinies of the country and the people with the utmost wisdom and ability…!!!
And when the Egyptian woman sat on the throne of Egypt… Hatshepsut ruled the Egyptian state for 21 years… during which she made Egypt the greatest military power in the world… and the Egyptian economy reached an unprecedented level… and her temple, which is considered a destination for those searching for the greatness of Egypt and its greatness, bears witness to this…!!!
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 guarded Egypt and she traveled to all countries of the world to collect money for her country with her voice, so she deserved respect and appreciation.
The Egyptian woman herself piloted the first plane in Egypt, and her voice rose above the voice of men in the 19 Revolution, and then in the June 30 Revolution. She is now the scientist, doctor, nurse, teacher, artist, and writer.
A young woman who dreams of tomorrow said to me sadly: But we inherit half of the man, Doctor. Isn’t this 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 stewardship. That is, a man’s rights towards his household and family are dependent on spending, and they revolve around him in existence and non-existence. Men are in charge of women because God has favored 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 regarding the available livelihood.
I said: Rather, it is an integration between people to create new livelihoods and strength for society. To use his full potential, not just half of it.
Another young woman said: But what protects women in this time from male tyranny?
I said: Knowledge, knowledge, knowledge and knowledge. Every family must arm its daughters with education and knowledge. There is no way to protect rights except through this.
To all the women of Egypt…
…to all the ladies of Egypt..
To all the great women of Egypt…
The whole world bows down out of respect… Your past is a civilization recorded by the first pages of history…
And the greatness of your present is unmistakable to the eyes of the beholders…
The future is illuminated by the sun of your beautiful presence.
Do not bow down to the ignorance of some people and the shallow thinking that wants to return you to the darkness of history.

About Dr. Hossam Badrawi

Dr. Hossam Badrawi
He is a politician, intellect, and prominent physician. He is the former head of the Gynecology Department, Faculty of Medicine Cairo University. He conducted his post graduate studies from 1979 till 1981 in the United States. He was elected as a member of the Egyptian Parliament and chairman of the Education and Scientific Research Committee in the Parliament from 2000 till 2005. As a politician, Dr. Hossam Badrawi was known for his independent stances. His integrity won the consensus of all people from various political trends. During the era of former president Hosni Mubarak he was called The Rationalist in the National Democratic Party NDP because his political calls and demands were consistent to a great extent with calls for political and democratic reform in Egypt. He was against extending the state of emergency and objected to the National Democratic Party's unilateral constitutional amendments during the January 25, 2011 revolution. He played a very important political role when he defended, from the very first beginning of the revolution, the demonstrators' right to call for their demands. He called on the government to listen and respond to their demands. Consequently and due to Dr. Badrawi's popularity, Mubarak appointed him as the NDP Secretary General thus replacing the members of the Bureau of the Commission. During that time, Dr. Badrawi expressed his political opinion to Mubarak that he had to step down. He had to resign from the party after 5 days of his appointment on February 10 when he declared his political disagreement with the political leadership in dealing with the demonstrators who called for handing the power to the Muslim Brotherhood. Therefore, from the very first moment his stance was clear by rejecting a religion-based state which he considered as aiming to limit the Egyptians down to one trend. He considered deposed president Mohamed Morsi's decision to bring back the People's Assembly as a reinforcement of the US-supported dictatorship. He was among the first to denounce the incursion of Morsi's authority over the judicial authority, condemning the Brotherhood militias' blockade of the Supreme Constitutional Court. Dr. Hossam supported the Tamarod movement in its beginning and he declared that toppling the Brotherhood was a must and a pressing risk that had to be taken few months prior to the June 30 revolution and confirmed that the army would support the legitimacy given by the people
