Mahtab Khatoun in the Time of Corona by Adel Al-Zayed

Some life circumstances put us in direct confrontation with our thoughts, those thoughts that have lived within us for many years and have influenced our decisions. It's truly strange that we are not always aware of these thoughts, as the rapid pace of life and its events keep us far from knowing everything that goes on in our minds.
Saif was living his life and acting according to convictions that he perhaps did not fully comprehend until the COVID-19 pandemic put him in direct confrontation with these convictions. Saif's experience was personal, but not unique, as most of us faced our thoughts and beliefs during the period of lockdown and social isolation imposed by the pandemic. However, most of us needed to witness the confrontations of others with their thoughts to realize our own confrontations.
What is unique is that Saif lived his own experience with Mahtab Khatoon. So, who is Mahtab Khatoon? And what was the result of this coexistence of ideas that Saif underwent during the COVID-19 pandemic?
