Young Egyptian actress Malak Ahmed Zahir surprised her audience by revealing that she experienced a sudden health crisis that led to her hospitalization, noting that her condition remains unstable and doctors have not yet determined the cause.

She explained via Instagram Stories that she is currently going through difficult health and psychological conditions but remains hopeful and expects to overcome the crisis soon.

"I’ve never posted anything but positivity"

The daughter of actor Ahmed Zahir confirmed that she has always shared only positive aspects of her life on social media, such as funny moments or light daily situations, saying: "I’ve never posted anything but enjoyable things, jokes, or anything positive. And when I wanted to share something negative, I would do it jokingly and only with close friends."

Criticism over "happiness"

She also addressed the attacks and criticism she received for showing moments of happiness, pointing out that some followers saw it as ignoring others’ suffering, saying: "Lately, I get a lot of comments like: ‘You’re living happily and we’re not, what’s all this about?’ People have started to focus on the smallest things that make me happy, like going to the gym, hanging out with friends, or dressing nicely at an event."

Details of the health crisis

Regarding her health, Malak revealed she experienced a sudden deterioration three days ago without warning, saying: "About half an hour before, I was perfectly fine, then suddenly I got very sick, and they still don’t know why. Since then, I haven’t been able to leave the house or let anyone see me, and my mood has been very bad."

A sincere message to her audience

In an honest message, she expressed her belief that only showing the positive side can be misleading, adding: "I like to share only the good, and that’s probably a mistake, so I decided to share the bad as well. What’s happening to me now, I thank God for it and believe it’s something minor and I’ll get better, God willing."

Warning against the illusion of "perfection" on social media

The young actress concluded her messages by warning against being misled by the perfect image portrayed on social media platforms, saying: "All I ask is that you don’t judge anyone based on social media, because it only shows maybe 20% of their life. Pray for my quick recovery. The goal is not to make anyone worry—I’m fine, thank God, and I wanted to share the bad just as I share the good."

Her latest works

It is worth noting that Malak Ahmed Zahir’s most recent appearance was in the series "Sayid Al-Nas" (Master of the People), which aired during last Ramadan’s drama season. The series starred several notable actors including Amr Saad, Reem Mostafa, Ahmed Zahir, Ahmed Rizk, Elham Shahin, and Engy Al-Muqaddam. It was written by Khaled Salah and directed by Mohamed Sami.
