Abstract

This article investigated the social and political freedom in Najib Mahfuz novels. It should be pointed that, to the best knowledge of the researchers, no critical analysis has been conducted on this topic until now. However, some researchers studied his visualization and ideal embodiment in his novels since his thoughts and ideas are rooted in Islam. Moreover, he believes in religious freedom, democracy, and man and woman equality. The current study revealed that Najib’ s novels are real visualization of social justice and women in the society. Furthermore, he refers to woman as political and social criticism tool. Sense of determinism and obedience of divine destiny is one of the outstanding characteristics reflected in his novels. He believes that the clear judgment is divine decree not human desires and demands. It is always seen that his novels narrate absolute despotism that there is no hope and he considers everything is divine decree. Najib Mahfuz has visualized a woman fighting for liberty and equality, the woman who is the slave of sex, poverty, and ignorance. She makes effort to educate, work and fights against sexual violence. Najib Mahfuz employs exemplars of the failure of the scholars before revolution for fulfilling his goals. The rulers use religion as a tool for concealing their corruption and tyranny and he visualizes these images elegantly.
