Ahmed, the eldest son in the family, is struggling internally. On one hand, he longs for the freedom of the new world, but on the other hand, he is constrained by the role of being the eldest brother in the family and feels the need to uphold traditions. As a result, his actions often appear to be old-fashioned, and he constantly struggles with his own beliefs and behavior. He has no friends in his life and feels like a stranger to his mother and siblings, unable to confide in them about his inner turmoil. Only in the presence of Shaila can he reveal his psychological secrets at specific moments when she pursues him persistently. He always feels lost, insignificant, weak, and powerless in the crowd, unable to gain the attention of anyone nor even feel his own existence. Even when Shaila is away from him, leaving him alone, he becomes afraid of making mistakes or saying the wrong things in front of others. He is always cautious and worried about making mistakes, but often makes things worse. He is a solitary, hesitant, and heartbroken young man.
When Shaila confesses her love to him, Ahmed cannot believe her feelings because he thinks she misunderstands his situation and only feels pity for him. This displays his weakness. He does not want to accept her confession and believes that he needs to discover himself and find a way to be worthy of her love before he can declare his feelings to her. He believes that the struggle and turmoil he experiences are better than the torment he experiences when receiving her sympathy.
Mamdouh dies after leaving home due to a severe emotional strike he suffered during a debate with his mother, uncle, and elder brother for his rights and freedom. His older brother, Ahmed, is completely immersed in feelings of guilt. At the same time, he also believes that the uncle is the real culprit who killed Mamdouh, but then he thinks that it is not only the uncle, but also the ideology behind him that killed Mamdouh. This ideology exists in many peoples minds and has killed many people like Mamdouh. Ahmed feels that this idea also exists in his own heart, and he wants to eliminate the presence of it.
Mamdouh symbolizes the complete rebellion and struggle against traditional forces. During the period of their legitimate power, complete rebellion means being eliminated or killed. Therefore, the author did not set Mamdouhs personal love story, love affair, or even a crush, because he devoted all his thoughts and energy to fighting traditional forces and fighting for real freedom, without any compromise or hesitation. In the end, he was pushed to his death by his mother, uni cle, and supported by his brother Ahmed. I think that after Mamdouhs death, the members of the family who had suffered from the oppression of traditional forces will slowly re-examine themselves, their behavior, and whether they should continue to compromise or break free from shackles.
In the three sisters eyes, Ahmed is a serious, solemn, and rigid person. They all fear him and his strict mentality. After Mamdouhs death, Ahmeds behavior became more like Mamdouhs. He began to use Mamdouhs vision to observe the world. Mamdouh is always optimistic and lives a normal life, full of various hopes. Everything is possible, everything is simple and trouble-free, and there is no inner struggle. Life is a kind of joy and laughter that fills the heart. New ideas are always opening new doors of hope. Life demands that you face it, consider it, and treat it like a teenage girl. You should actively propose to her and make her fall in love with you completely. You should build a magnificent and rich family for her, brainstorm and think of ways to improve your living standards. When life becomes rich and colorful, you will become more abundant and fulfilled.
Ahmed does not know that he has set up a serious and stern barrier between himself and his brother, which prevents him from understanding the details and true situation of his brothers life.
