NOTES
The text recounts the story of the Coptic saint, Catherine of Alexandria, a virtuous woman from Alexandria, who challenges a king's idol worship, engages in debates with local philosophers, endures miraculous interventions, and ultimately faces martyrdom for her unwavering faith in God. This hagiographical account appears distinctive as it circulated in northern Arabia in late antiquity
