Meanwhile, the similarities of the feminine views of the two Iranian and Syrian literary women on issues like woman, war, love, etc., have been discussed by offering examples as evidence. It was revealed that how Daneshvar and al-Samman had similar views of the mentioned issues, despite their differences in ideology and geography.
