Egyptian singer Lubna Mahmoud, known as "um Saleh", died on Sunday evening, as the artist Ashraf Zaki, head of the Syndicate of Acting Professions, announced her death, and while the artist's colleagues and fans shared their sad feelings on her passing, others reposted clips of her work and reminded her of what she presented.

There were some reports that the deceased had an imbalance, which caused her to fall and suffer a brain hemorrhage, which led to her subsequent death, but Zaki denied this in media statements.

Zaki stressed that the deceased has a long medical history, and was treated for years, surprising repeating such things about her, especially since she went out months ago and talked about the treatment journey she went through and the difficulties she was experiencing.

The funeral will be held on Monday from the Sayyeda Nafisa mosque after noon prayers and then buried in the family cemetery.

Career and richness

The actress's career with the world of cinema and television began in the eighties, specifically in 1985, through the film "The owner of the administration, the janitor of architecture", in which she played the role of a young woman named Dalal, but the greatest success was achieved for her when she grew older.

Going back to the beginnings, we find that Lubna Mahmoud began her life by studying at the Higher Institute of Ballet and graduated in 1973, and joined the first Cairo Ballet troupe, and participated in several international performances.

In addition to her passion for dance, Lubna studied at the Higher Institute of Dramatic Arts, where she graduated in 1979, and began her artistic career with several roles in theater, cinema and television.

Her participation in the series "Family Theme" with Majid Al-Kedwani, in which she played the role of a mother with Alzheimer's, won the praise of the audience and followers, especially since the series included many touching scenes.

Lubna Mahmoud's cinematic participations are rich and diverse, as she has presented about 90 works of art throughout her career, and most of her roles were characterized by a sense of humor and comedy.

I become happy with the role as soon as it comes to me because I know that I will do something There is no such thing as a small role This will make me smaller This will reduce me No, I'm the one who enlarges the role, I'm the one who makes the role tasteless, so as long as I can do this, I don't mind doing it, I have a piece of confidence, thank God, trust in God of course

The writer Bahaa Hijazi said that the late artist is one of those who left a mark through small roles, and said that the name Lubna Mahmoud means the six Safia in "The Nazer" and her famous scene with the six jewels, and means the scene of "um Saleh" in the movie "Bank of Fortune", and means the doctor who loves Ismail in "Blade Paper". It means Abraham's mother in a "family theme".

A large number of artists were keen to mourn the late artist through their social media pages.

The artist Donia Samir Ghanem wrote through her "Story" on Instagram, "We belong to God and to Him we return," and the artist Taha Desouki wrote, "Professor Lubna Mahmoud is in the grace of God, may God have mercy on her."

The artist Akram Hosni was also keen to mourn her and wrote, "May God have mercy on you, Professor Lubna, we will miss you."

Actor and poet Ahmed Haddad wrote about her suffering in recent years, and that at the beginning of his career he acted in a short film and she presented one of his roles.

For his part, comedian Mohamed Tharwat wrote: "A respectable, creative and beautiful artist I remember in a famous scene in the movie Bank of Fortune, after she performs the scenes she would apologize to me and say I'm sorry because she was required to hit me, and I was telling her to repeat the beating because that's what it takes."

On Egyptian platforms, several videos about the roles of the late artist were circulated, and pictures of her in different roles, reminiscent of her career. A page called "Classic" has attached two photos, the first from the artist's beginnings in 1985 and the other from her last work in 2023: "A beautiful artist who got her fame and the love of the audience a little late but left an unforgettable imprint, the six Safia um Atef in the film Al-Nazer, um Saleh the film Bank of Fortune, Mama Mimi Nelly and Sherihan and her latest work in the series Family Theme Al-Sit um Ibrahim."
