When I presented the show "Shahid Ala El Asr", which quickly was met with huge success and became the talk of the media in Egypt and in the Arab world, that&rsquo;s when he wrote about me in the magazine "Sabah El Kheir" through the column "Esmaany", a sentence not more than a line and a half, but I cherished it and it was a source of motivation for me, he said "Continuation is the key to success " to describe my work and my effect on the audience.&rdquo;

Entesar Shalabi: &nbsp;Former Head of Egypt Radio And Media Personality &nbsp;
"During the work of the esteemed interviewer, which lasted for over 60 years, everyone benefited from his interviews and programs. I hope he will have an academy of his own in which the youth who are interested in media will learn what the media actually is. We also benefited from him because he made the difference between distinguished interlocutors and substandard interlocutors. I hope that Mofeed Fawzy will have a special academy in his name so that media youth can learn what media is, especially since he did not like the title of media person, and he always used to tell me that I hate this title and I prefer to be (interviewer Mofeed Fawzy) because the word media person has come to refer to any person who has a profession in this profession but has nothing to do with it.&rdquo;
