Both The Outsider and Woman at Point Zero portray faith as something that characters ultimately reject, which reveals its significance as a socially imposed structure rather than a source of genuine meaning. In Camus’ nove, Meursault’s refusal to embrace religious faith, even at the moment of execution, exposes the absurdity of seeking cosmic order where none exists. Similarly, in El Saadawi’s text, Firdaus rejects the moral and religious doctrines that justify her oppression, insisting on self-defined truth. Together, these works suggest that faith becomes meaningful only when questioned, and its rejection empowers individuals to confront and redefine their own existence.
