The Ottoman Empire was a vast political entity that existed for more than five hundred years, making it impossible to question how the women in the whole Ottoman legal structure ought to be treated. In the Islamic Empires, all the women were treated based on the Islamic law; therefore, questioning these meant questioning the Islamic laws which was a taboo. Women as a legal subject forms a very diverse topic which can be looked at in terms of marriage law, adultery laws, property laws, among others. Therefore, Bushceq 's letter was only an informative document and not one that took any side as he was not meant to question the set Islamic Laws.

She struggled through the lines, the rhythm and beauty lost in her voice. For thirty minutes, Fatima labored over the page, her head bent over in frustration ignoring her sister’s plea to play. As the time for her break approached, she vehemently protested, choosing instead to clamber into my arms, begging me to translate what she had just read. At her young age, she had fallen in love with the Arabic language. She loved the feeling of serenity that caressed her at hearing its recitation, but even more, she loved reciting it; she loved how it took her entire mouth to say a single word and the rhythm of the stressed and unstressed syllables. However, after months of practicing, she remained a far cry from the harmonious voice she aspired to attain.

They have clear meaning, and are written in plain tense, which makes it easy to read and understand.

In "Sofia Khan is not Obliged" the main character is a decent case of such a woman who rehearses the Islamic ceremonies not for only a reassurance or to keep up the religious clothing regulation; rather she does it to satisfy her God and also to her self-soul. Her conviction supplies her the strength to battle against all impediments and to be stronger in decision making. Several times she recalls the citation from the holy Quran. This study decided to apply the concept of haya’ on the basis of the leading character ‘Sofia’. In that case, an analysis on Sofea’s speeches and actions is highly needed for the sake of the progress of this study.

2.1 Mushrooms were known and consumed as food in ceremonies as far back as prehistoric times. Throughout the history, mushrooms were used in different cultures for their medicinal and tonic properties (Gunde-Cimerman, 1999).

The most noteworthy medicinal effect of mushrooms and their metabolites that they fascinated the attention of the public in the modern years is their antitumour property. Many pharmaceutical ingredients with potent and unique properties were isolated from mushrooms and spread worldwide. Many of them are not strictly pharmaceutical products but represent the novel class of dietary supplements of approx. 10,000 known species of mushrooms, 2000 are safe and 300 have significant pharmacological properties (Hobbs, 1995, Miles and Chang, 1997).
