Abstract : Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris
The novel "Salalim al-Nahar" was a shock and a departure from what was settled in the Arab heritage in terms of permissibility of taboos that a woman did not have a share in it especially woman in the Arab Gulf region. But the novelist Fawzia Shawish Al-Salem allowed herself to engage in actions and behavior that a woman was prohibited from inserting herself in it. Because she wanted to be shocking not just for the mores of the Gulf society but rather, she was trying to change her society`s view of some of its groups especially The Bidoon who treated as a class is less prestigious than the purebreds. She had to be tough and harsh towards social norms to change what settled in the souls. So she headed to the silent (sexual) words and expressions offensive to public modesty to convey the suffering of this social class in a shocking way that may be a cause of change.
