Suad Al-Muajjal School
The creative writer, our dear sister Suad Fahd Al-Muajjal, has maintained her intellectual methodology and allegiance since an early period at university, and throughout her social, political, and cultural life. She is a writer who does not act rashly in her expression, does not seek the glamour of publicity, and does not engage in the arrogance of behavior and speech.
Sincere and profound scientific discussion has never left the mind of our esteemed colleague Suad in her thinking and writings, since the beginning of her journey in local journalism and the magazine “Al-Tali’a.” At the same time, she is modest in her life and appearance, as she lives in harmony with her convictions, with firm faith, neither changing colors nor altering her stance according to circumstances.
Scrutinizing observation and scientific analysis are traits inherent to Professor Suad Al-Muajjal, who strives to address enlightened public opinion while maintaining the balance of her intellectual convictions. She recognizes, without evasion or conciliation, the superiority of the “Muslim Brotherhood group in organization,” in contrast to the fragmentation of the liberal current.

Suad has engaged, and continues to engage, in intellectual and social battles, but in a manner different from some writers who delve into controversial issues by focusing on superficialities and ignoring the essence, rationality in criticism, thinking, and analysis; for enlightenment has value and established cultural rules.
Wisdom begins with mental maturity, not with hormonal changes; wisdom is not controlled by age, nor do females surpass males or vice versa. Moreover, the loudest voice in the room does not signify strength and victory, but may be an expression of weakness and mob mentality.
Some write excessively about their simple interests, rash observations, and selfish behaviors, while criticizing conservative appearances and encouraging decay and moral dissolution. In contrast, writers of wisdom and rationality prefer to adhere to the rules of dialogue and not impose their convictions on others as if they were holders of unprecedented intellectual victories.
Sadness has a place in the human heart and mind, and its expression is not tied to form or a gloomy appearance. The same applies to objection and expressing a different opinion; discussing any anomalous phenomenon or abhorrent decisions requires objectivity and offering solutions, not exaggerating in reckless criticism.
There is no longer the most famous writer, or the all-knowing writer, or the wisest; rationality and the style of writing and analysis are governed by professional, cultural, and scientific rules. These rules measure the writer’s sanity, the objectivity of his questions, and the balance of his convictions, not the squabbles of the petty, the depravity of the prominent, or eternal vendettas.
Many know the writer Suad Al-Muajjal, who excels in analyzing the literature of the novel due to her specialization, and linking it to reality. She also reads the cultural and intellectual landscape with a scrutinizing eye, without distancing herself from history and its challenges. The elements of her essay are shaped by realism, rationality, and logic, not by deadly narcissism.
In the past, the rational writer Suad was decisive with herself and in harmony with her convictions. She frankly apologized for committing to write in two daily newspapers and the magazine “Al-Tali’a,” because she found that writing three articles a week constituted excess and mental exhaustion.
She previously limited herself to writing twice a week, between a daily newspaper and a weekly one, to preserve intellectual balance and so that the pen would not bend toward the abyss of daily rambling.
Today, she commits to writing one weekly article, relinquishing the glamour of daily display and what it may cause of nausea among readers.
Excessive writing can turn into rambling and chatter, becoming merely an outlet for vocabulary devoid of content or opinions worthy of reading or contemplation. Yet, some are tempted by the dense chatter of the pen, coveting the title of “King of Writers,” while in reality, they may be nothing more than acrobats performing flips, and champions of depravity in quarrels!
Congratulations to our dear sister Suad Al-Muajjal on the release of the “Paper and Pen” series. May it serve as a school for adults before children, in the realm of writing and engaging with public opinion—both mature and immature, and even those of modest stature in culture and writing—a school that shapes words with the pen to express both beautiful and ugly realities.
