Thank you!
agree Nesrin : agree with Alaa. Also "dissent" for اختلاف. I think "dissidence" is mostly used in the context of government opposition.

The Arabic term ikhtilaaf denotes taking a different position or course from that of another person either in opinion, utterance, or action. The related word khilaaf is from the same root as ikhtilaaf and is sometimes used synonymously with it. Khilaaf, which basically means difference, disagreement, or even conflict is broader in meaning and implication than the concept of direct opposition. This is so because two opposites are necessarily different from each other whereas two things, ideas, or persons that differ are not necessarily opposed to or in conflict with each other.

might be more appropraite if you wrote the word as it is then put the expltake a look at this site , might be very useful for you :
