She stressed the importance of supporting the family and praying for them during such difficult circumstances.
An Emotional Message to Yasmin Abu El-Naga’s Family

Who Was Yasmin Abu El-Naga?
Yasmin Seif Allah Abu El-Naga was the only daughter of actress Naglaa Fathy and her former husband, actor and architect Seif Abu El-Naga. The couple married during the 1970s in a relationship that brought together two figures connected to the Egyptian artistic community.
Naglaa Fathy and Seif Abu El-Naga remained married for several years before eventually separating, while maintaining a human relationship. Their daughter Yasmin, meanwhile, largely remained away from the spotlight and media attention.
Yasmin grew up in a family with strong connections to the Egyptian arts scene. Her mother, Naglaa Fathy, is regarded as one of the prominent actresses in Egyptian cinema, while her father, Seif Abu El-Naga, appeared in several artistic productions before eventually focusing on his professional career as an architect.
Yasmin Chose to Stay Away from the Entertainment Industry
Despite being raised in a well-known artistic family, Yasmin Abu El-Naga did not choose to follow the path of acting. Instead, she preferred to live away from fame and public attention and maintained the privacy of her personal life away from the media.
Her decision to remain outside the spotlight meant that her public appearances were relatively rare, keeping much of her personal life away from the attention that surrounded her mother and her long career in Egyptian cinema.
Yasmin’s passing has once again brought attention to another side of Naglaa Fathy’s family life, particularly because her only daughter had chosen for years to remain distant from the entertainment and media industries and protect her private life away from fame.
Grief Goes Beyond Fame and the Spotlight
Shams El-Baroudi’s message comes at a time when Yasmin’s family is going through one of the most painful periods of their lives. Her words also emphasize that fame and being part of the entertainment industry do not change the nature of grief or the emotions experienced when a loved one passes away.
Her message also highlights the importance of respecting the feelings of grieving families and allowing them the necessary space to process their loss without additional pressure or unwanted interference that could make the experience even more difficult.
Ultimately, Yasmin Abu El-Naga’s passing remains a painful moment for her family and loved ones, while messages of condolences and prayers continue to be shared. Her family is being remembered with sympathy and support, along with wishes that God grant them patience, peace, and strength during this difficult period. ✨
