Mohamed Salah raises controversy with his tweet about the death of Queen Elizabeth, and the public comments

Weather of Arabia - The Egyptian star, Mohamed Salah, sparked controversy, after offering his condolences on the death of Queen Elizabeth II, and he was subjected to several criticisms that prompted many to defend his position and the surprising wave of attack on him.

Salah wrote on his official page on Twitter on Monday, "Today the people of Great Britain and the world stand in respect and bid farewell to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, recalling her unwavering legacy and service. My thoughts are with the royal family on this historic and emotional day," he said.

The Egyptian player's tweet angered some of the tweeters who considered that Salah had published this tweet as a matter of public relations or for other purposes, forgetting many historical facts about Britain's relationship with Egypt.

On the other hand, the attack on the Egyptian player prompted many of the tweeters to defend him, denouncing what he was exposed to.

The tweeter Fathi Abu Hatab wrote a tweet on Twitter, in which he said: "I do not find a single reason for people's anger at Salah's condolences to the queen of the country, who provided him and his family with work, success and respect. Mohamed Salah offers his condolences to the British society and the royal family with a classy personal message that should not bother anyone." .

For his part, an Egyptian journalist said: "Hands off Mohamed Salah. He is a professional football player. He is not a political fighter.. Nor is he a religious advocate. Mohamed Salah is more than he can bear.. Always remember that he is a professional football player," as he put it.
