Maryam Farag Juma Sidra Al-Sidr: Forty-two years have passed since the founding of the United Arab Emirates, since December 2, 1971, which is the date from which the blessed march of the union began and whose blessing spread throughout the country. Since before the union and then during the four decades following December 2, a group of women have emerged in the modern and contemporary history of the Emirates. They have created a place for themselves in this history, and left clear impacts in the various scientific, social, media, cultural, and research aspects of life. They were thus pioneers of women’s work in the country. They agree in their challenge of life's difficulties and their struggle for a promising future for society. This study works to preserve, record and document events, occasions, milestones and decisions in the life of Professor Maryam Jumaa Faraj - may God have mercy on her - who was a pioneering model of women’s work in the UAE, and thanks to God Almighty and then her hard work and effort, many successes and achievements were achieved for her.
These thoughts are hymns for joy and happiness, and hymns for giving and giving to others and to oneself, alike to the two. What is important is that this giving be purely for the good and a giving that does not expect to be returned with the same. For our giving to be beautiful and wonderful, we must distribute it like pieces of candy that are distributed to children without any expectation from them to pay. Its price.
It is a call for love, tolerance and familiarity for all, as they are all human values that do not recognize spatial or temporal boundaries. Their boundaries will be drawn after they prevail in a world that needs many stimulating doses of them, and our role is to take these doses one dose after another.
I leave you with some hymns of happiness, away from the world of sorrows and worries, and doses of hope that we have drawn and colored with the colors of happiness.
