Specialist in Philosophy and Contemporary Arab Thought

     Someone may or may not realize that Existentialism is a philosophical theory and an intellectual school that has what it has and is against what it is against, whether positively or negatively, and he may or may not know that he is one of the advocates of imported, hybrid, or incoming theories as acculturation from a soil that has its own ideological, political, and traditional conditions, and he may or may not know that every human thought is necessarily subject to taking and rejecting.. and every philosophical human idea, whether he opposes it or takes it, will be listed among the non-definitive human sciences, and thus will always carry in its isolation the seeds of its annihilation and death, or the possibility of building upon it and reviving it.

     The life of this person cast into a world full of existential conflicts, from his early mornings to his late evenings, and from the spring of his age to its autumn, does not care about the saying that existence precedes essence, and perhaps he has never heard of it before, and if he heard of it he would not take it because it contradicts his , or his religion, or his heritage, but he nevertheless heard and was delighted and waited to prove existence, and impose being, between existences that compete with him for the seat of favor, and the signs of the daughter, as long as his existence was false, flimsy, and troubled.

     They are that person, and his likes among single individuals, groups, societies, and states, you find them between the two parts of the millstone, for what is in the minds of spirit and soul contradicts, competes with, and negates what is in the eyes, embodied, formed, and standing before him. Therefore, people and entities differed in existence. There is he whose existence is original, bright, and reconciled with himself and with the distinct and divided other from his body and soul, because he was completed in himself first, and by himself second, and became capable of adapting every variable in its temporal limits, and its spatial nature.

     This person may realize later the fact that d alone is the necessary eternal existence in consciousness, trait, and behavior, and what is other than Him is a possible existence, in truth and falsehood, od and evil, beauty and ugliness.. thus he places for himself the dividing line between his self, and between what he wants, and what he does not want, with the prior expectation of the occurrence of any of them as long as they are subject to the possible existence, and the occurrence.
