| QUOTE |
| The prolific author was a strong voice for moderation and religious tolerance. Unlike other Egyptian artists, he supported Egypt's 1979 peace treaty with Israel. |
It is hard in the middle east to take an unpopular stand, but he has done that his entire life. He was accused of blasphemy and being a lover of Israel, yet in the end, he still wrote what he felt and believed. His books are less works of fiction, but thinly disguised virtues attained during his life, those stories were about him.
