This issue is enriched with an overview of the life of the distinguished Arab scientist, the late Samira Moussa, and her achievements and works. It is the story of a creative scientist who hoped to harness corn for the good of mankind and break into the field of medical treatment, where history immortalized her famous saying: “My wish.” “The treatment of cancer with corn is like aspirin.” Within the framework of introducing scientific institutions, this issue presents “Dar Al-Ulum” in Cairo/Egypt, the school of heritage and modernity that had a major impact in enriching the Arab cultural movement.

The house still publishes many works by professors and spreads culture and knowledge throughout the Arab world and beyond its borders. As the organization presents this issue to its dear readers, it extends its thanks to the distinguished writers who enriched it with their articles. It also relies on the efforts of academics and experts to write in this magazine and deliver it to the beneficiaries in a way that meets the aspirations of our Arab generations.
