He is an Egyptian satirical writer. He was born in the village of Zawamil in Sharkia Governorate, Egypt. He obtained a Bachelor of Laws in 1943 and a diploma in journalism in 1945. He married on the same day of his birthday in 1950, Mrs. Etidal al-Safi and had three children.. Dr. (Adel) is a doctor, and the engineer (Nabil) ), and Professor (Alaa) the lawyer.. He passed away on December 5, 1981 AD after a cynical struggle with a serious illness!.. And so that I can explain to you who this (Mohamed Afifi) I am talking about is.. It suffices that you read with me now the news of his obituary. Which he himself wrote and recommended that it not be published on the obituaries page in the normal way in which the obituary is published.. but as a light and pleasant news similar to the famous (text of a word) written by the great writer - and also satirical - Professor (Ahmed Ragab) .. Here is the news of the death of you, gentlemen. (Mohamed Afifi), who had written it himself - before he left, of course!! Dear reader: I regret to inform you of something that may sadden you a bit, that I have passed away, and of course I do not write this word after death (this is a little difficult), but I write it before that, and I recommended that it be published after my death, because I believe that death is a special thing that is not called for. Annoying others by sending telegraphs and crowding around the Omar Makram Mosque, where mourning nights are usually held. And if these words make you sad, you don't mind being sad a bit, but I hope you don't grieve too much." To put a smile on their lips as it was always his habit in his life.. He also makes it his message after his death.. and the commandment has been implemented.. there is no mourning.. no consolation.. and no sadness but sadness in the name of the one who lived to draw a smile on the lips in a way that he is unable to satirical writers...
