Zahra was the heroine of the novel who suffered the most in her life and in her misery, even with her escape from her father’s house, she lived subject to the false laws that men imposed on her.
[3] Nazik Al-Araji criticized the language of the heroine of the novel “Al-Tawaf Hind Al-Jamar” because she used expressions that an illiterate girl was not supposed to know, from his point of view.
He saw that this was due to “the writer’s culture and experience slipping into the character’s language... but this approach is justified by the fate of the woman who is the subject of the biography, who ultimately deserves to be proud of her personal characteristics as a criterion in determining her fate.” Khalid Al-Maamari believes that Badriyya Al-Shihhi “has been working since her first novel, Al-Tawaf Hind Al-Jamar, to the novel Karma Al-Dhib to create a relationship between character and place, although the two are closely linked in narrative writing and interact with each other in the construction of events.
Accordingly, she has given the characters of her novels the freedom to penetrate places, and the right to interact and enter her imaginary world, forming a focus of conflict and collision between them.
The natures of the characters in Badriyya Al-Shihhi's novels - whether primary or secondary - grow based on spatial situations and their changes from one space to another.” According to him, Badriyya Al-Shihhi presented in her novels (Al-Tawaf Hind Al-Jamar, Physics 1, and Karma Al-Dhib) an image of the relationship between character and place, and he noted the presence of “the contradictions of place in culture, language, social and scientific life, and the ideology that has hidden in human thought.” As for the image of women in her writings, he believes that it “is formed according to an ideological conflict with the other, and accordingly this conflict expands "to include the place that works to shape events according to its vision of the reference that it addresses in the novel.”
