These tasks, which were considered to be the only job for all the girls of her generation, were not enough, their energy was great, and they were also distributed in school (1946-1956) and as literature, the product of which was published in many magazines... Many were provided through Lebanese radio. Of course, we add to all this scientific mobility her role as a social activist in the field she loved. It must be said here that this groundbreaking example of changing the traditional stereotype of women in the early part of the century is a small one in Tripoli, which can be described socially as a tradition - preserving city and where the dynamic of social change as a city is still relatively slower than that of the Lebanese capital, Beirut. It is true that Tripoli has historically been described as a city of science and scientists, but this characterization was of "the world of men" in it, "and a mystical reverence described as" Tripoli, glamorous in a conservative masculine society, out of the lavish way of life that a woman lived, and broke the yields of social constraints, as if taken from her Persian name: The world and the world, a literary launch station for Lebanon and the Arab world. She was a solid, transparent, tortured woman who grew up from inside the Old City, but her jellyfish went off at the height of her tender and her youth. "
