A profound sense of sadness enveloped everyone at the funeral of the late artist Ashraf Abd Al-Ghafour, who passed away on Sunday evening due to a car accident involving him and his wife. The sudden loss of the Egyptian artist left everyone in shock, and his daughter, Riham Abd Al-Ghafour, experienced severe distress, having been crying since she rushed to the hospital right after the accident. She mourned her father on her official social media accounts, commenting on the incident with "I can't believe it," and requested everyone to pray for the deceased.
During the burial, many stars from the arts scene in Egypt and the Arab world gathered to bid farewell to the late artist and support his daughter in this difficult time. Some stars spoke to the media with simple words to honor the deceased, while others refrained from commenting due to the challenging nature of the funeral.
However, the Egyptian actress Wafaa Amer could not maintain her composure during the funeral and reacted strongly to a journalist who asked her to say a word to artist Riham Abd Al-Ghafour. In a video, as Wafaa Amer was leaving the funeral, a reporter asked her, "A word for Riham... a word for Riham." Wafaa Amer responded angrily, saying, "What am I supposed to tell someone who has a deceased? ... Clear the way for me; let me get the car, God help you," before leaving visibly upset.
