From here, from Egypt, and since the dawn of history, the world knew the meaning of love before any love story. Thousands of years ago here on the land of Egypt there was a sad love story between (Isadora) the Egyptian girl with Greek roots, the daughter of the governor of a region located in the present-day area of Ilmenia and the Egyptian officer. favor".
And because love does not define social classes and does not differentiate between rulers and the ruled, he linked my beautiful young heart, "Isadora," whose name means "Hiba Eza," with a simple Egyptian officer, a violent and sad love story.
Isadora used to live in Egypt in the city of Antinopolis (now Sheikh Ubadah) on the side of the Nile, and her father was the ruler of the region known today as Minya Governorate, and his large palace was located in the city of Antinopolis, where it overlooks the Nile and the green fields.
Isadora was a young 16-year-old girl when she met love for the first and last time in her life when her eyes fell on the Egyptian officer (Habi), who was living on the western side of the Nile in the city of Khimono (now Al-Ashmonin) and was one of the guard forces in the city and then He is considered a person from among the common people of Egypt and the people were not against him. There is no comparison between them in terms of level .. Nevertheless, love said its word, and fate took it to meet its lover.
Isadora came out
From her city across the river to attend one of the celebrations for "Thoti", the symbol of wisdom and the pen in ancient Egypt, and there she met the officer Habi, and she became attached to him and was fascinated with her .. so that they met every day and every night. She would go to him by the lake, and he used to come to it near her father’s palace
After three years of sincere love, her father knew about this and decided to prevent this love from continuing. In his custom, his Greek-origin daughter should not be associated with an Egyptian youth, and he informed the guards of her tracking, and they prevent that young man from meeting her.
Indeed, it was tightening the screws on her until she decided that life without her lover was meaningless, so she decided to commit suicide.
But you should have seen it one last time
Indeed, she managed to fool around guarding her and went to the same place at the lake and did not tell him what she intended to do, which was suicide, and she invited him and went even if she reached the middle of the river and threw herself into the arms of the Nile
Her father deeply regretted what he did to his daughter. He built a beautiful cemetery for her and wrote two elegies of poetry in it. As for her lover, he was sincere and loyal, so he went every night to light a candle inside her cemetery so that her soul would not remain alone. Her body remained mummified and lay on a white marble bed until now.
When the Dean of Arabic Literature, Taha Hussein, learned of her story, he built a resting place in the Tuna al-Jabal area next to her cemetery and wrote for her a great novel called “Isadora the Martyr of Love.” Every day during his stay, he lit a candle for her as her lover my beloved did. Some of the film shots represented a break in Dr. Sami Jabra, an Egyptian Egyptologist who gave Taha Hussein the necessary money when he was Minister of Knowledge to complete an excavation in Tuna Al Jabal.
