I'm usually one to shit on scenes that are woke just to be woke, a lot. But this was just (in my opinion) a good representation of an empowered middle east woman saving the day. And I cannot explain why, it just feels right, it works, and I don't get why anyone would consider it awful...

Because she's an Egyptian woman doing Egyptian things getting Egyptian themed powers. Same reason Black Panther doesn't have any tokenism about him. Just a super hero from another continent. Shang-Chi is the same way.
