Khaberni - The young Egyptian journalist Heba Al-Ziad died suddenly in her sleep, which was a great shock to her audience and social media pioneers.
Sources close to Al-Ziad confirmed that she did not suffer from any obvious health problems, and she was leading her professional and personal life normally until her last hours, suggesting that her death was due to a severe drop in blood circulation during her sleep, according to local newspapers.
An Extended Academic Journey
Al-Ziad was known for her passion for studying and academic achievement, having earned a bachelor's degree in Media, Radio, and Television with excellent grades, and continued her higher education in multiple fields.
Al-Ziad entered the media world at a young age and managed in about 15 years to present more than 32 programs across various satellite channels, addressing social and cultural issues that made her close to a wide segment of followers.
She also ventured into literary writing by publishing several works, most notably: the novel Rosana, A'waan Iblis in the Minor Sky, Rules for Breaking Rules, a lake of human tears, and Death in a Living Bond.
In previous statements, Al-Ziad expressed her interest in human and Sharia sciences, mentioning that she had memorized 27 parts of the Holy Quran, in addition to having read thousands of books in diverse areas including arts, human development, energy, music, and astronomy.
Last Appearance Before Death
A few days before her demise, Al-Ziad posted a video on her Facebook account from behind the scenes of shooting her latest program "The Professor," which she was preparing to launch episodes for. She had apologized just one week earlier for not recording a new episode, having completed a significant number of episodes.
Journalist Samira Al-Deghidi, owner of "Ashams" channel, mourned Al-Ziad with an emotional message on Facebook, which read: "There is no power or strength except through Allah, the Most High, the Great, may God have mercy on you, Heba.. the news is a big shock. I still remember the last time we sat talking about the show, and you had prepared twenty episodes. When I told you about discussing twenty episodes now, you laughed and confidently told me: 'Professor, in a week I'll be ready with 1000 episodes, the 'Professor' program has been my dream for years'."
She added: "You were all positive energy and enthusiasm, and you had many dreams you wanted to achieve, my dear, do not grieve over the one who created you. I ask God to have mercy on you with vast mercy and to make your abode paradise and to comfort your mother's heart on your separation.. Indeed, we belong to Allah and to Him we shall return."
