Actor Nidal El Shafai announced the passing of his mother through a heartfelt post on Facebook, writing:
🕊️ “To God we belong and to Him we shall return. My dearest mother has passed away.”

He revealed that the funeral prayer will be held after Dhuhr prayer at Al Bahgat Mosque in Dreamland, followed by burial at the family cemetery on Al-Wahat Road. He concluded his post asking followers to pray for his mother’s mercy and forgiveness.


🕯️ Emotional details from the final days

This announcement comes shortly after Nidal shared details about his late wife, Hend Mohamed Ali, and her request before passing to purchase a burial plot in Cairo, despite the family cemetery being in Menoufia.

During his appearance on the program “Mirror,” Nidal explained that his wife felt strongly about having a shared burial place in Cairo—a request that seemed unclear at the time but gained deeper meaning after her departure.


💬 Why does this resonate?

Such personal details open a window into the emotional complexity of preparing for the end, and how people’s final decisions often carry meanings that become clear only after they are gone.
It also reflects the deep connection to family and place when saying the final farewell.
