An-Najah National University family mourns with great sadness the death of the Palestinian poet Fadwa Tokan. We extend our deepest sympathy and condolences to Fadwa Tokan`s family, and we share our profound sense of loss with the large community that loved her.
Fadwa Tokan was a fountain of humanity, compassion, intellectual restless and creativity; her irreplaceable voice articulated the plight of the Palestinian community to the world in a way, which is understandable by the eastern and western people.
She was an intelligent and caring woman who presented the truth and documented the history of Palestine by her poems and autobiography, she gave us hope and strength, and she also helped us to understand our identity and ourselves. Fadwa was a member of An-Najah Board of Trustees that established the university in 1977.
Her passing is a true loss not only to the Palestinian people, but also to all of those who read her novels around the world; she was great woman, exceptional one.
Once again, we extend our deepest condolences to Fadwa Tokan`s family, and grieve with the rest of the Palestinian people.
