I have just received this sad and dull news as soon as I got online.
1938-2008
Abdel Wahab El-Messiri , the great Egyptian thinker and author had passed away this morning.
It did not happen yesterday.He died today at 5 am Cairo Local time
The Funeral will be from his hometown in Damanhur after the Asr Prayer.
The late thinker suffered long time illness Cancer and I must say that despite his illness that he insisted on fighting dictatorship in Egypt in his role in Kafya as a coordinator.
I do not know what to say except May Allah bless his soul and give patience to his family and to us not only in Egypt but in the Whole Islamic world. I consider Abdel Wahab El-Messiri like Gamal Hamad , that kind of thinker whose work is not for the country all but for the whole world.
He was at first Marxist then he became an Islamic think , in fact of the best Islamic thinker I believe in our time.
Wait for a short Bio post about the late thinker
Please read the Fatah on his soul if you are a Muslim , if you are not then please remember him in your prayer.
Important update : The Funeral and its prayer will be from Rab'a El-Adawia's Mosque Nasr City in the Zohr Prayer at 1 pm , the burial will be in his home town
