I struggle to find ways that he is notable before his death. I see many Google News hits that are boiler plate articles about his death, but I don't see anything that makes him truly notable. only (talk) 11:08, 3 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep He’s so famous in Egypt that there are 20 pages of Google news searches about him, almost all of them from the last month - the sheer volume of coverage of his death has pushed almost everything else out of the search rankings. What I have found is a number of news stories about him from 2019 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and . Google translate works perfectly well for 1-5 so I won’t take up space with them here. One of them is in Al-Jazira, showing that he was known outside of Egypt. 6 won’t work with Google translate but it is an editorial all about the doctor in a Saudi newspaper, describing his fifty years of selfless work. So there is certainly in depth coverage of the subject in multiple reliable independent sources well before his death. A clear WP:GNG pass. Mccapra (talk) 04:24, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep – Per a source review, the subject meets WP:BASIC and point #2 of WP:ANYBIO, and ample coverage about the subject exists that preceeds the coverage about his death, so this is not a BLP1E situation. AGF regarding the reliability of the Arabic news sources provided herein, as Arabic language media is not an area of expertise for me. North America1000 07:01, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep – I can agree with North America, looks like Meets WP:BASIC. Existance Leesaaisath 11:14, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
