Ahmed El Sakka reveals the story of being slapped with a pen by his father

Artist Ahmed El Sakka was a guest on the “Beit El Saad” program, presented by the brothers Amr Saad and Ahmed Saad , on MBC satellite channel and the “Shahid” electronic platform.

Ahmed El Sakka talks about the story of his beating During the episode, El-Sakka told the story of being beaten as a child, after Ahmed Saad asked him if he had ever been beaten in his life.

Ahmed El Sakka said that he was beaten a lot, including one time he will never forget when he was young, when he said: “I was returning from the fields in the village at night, and I was riding the buffalo that was driving the herd in front of me, and I got into a fight at that moment.”

He added: “When I first got into a fight, I found the whole village coming at me and beating me with palm fronds. I was about 16 years old, and I will never forget that beating in my life.”

The story of Ahmed El Sakka's father slapping him He also told the story of his father slapping him when he was a student, saying: “I was hit once by my father when I was in university because I argued with my mother.” He continued: “I learned French by listening to my father and mother talking to each other, and my mother speaks 6 languages.”

Al-Saqa added: “There was a quarrel and we were living in the fifth floor and I grabbed it and said I would jump from above, so my father came close to me and said jump and I will consider that I did not give birth to anyone but your sister… I found my father came close to me and hit me with the pen to the point that I can hear my ear now shrinking because of the pen and I was surprised because my father, may God have mercy on him, loved me very much… My father said to me I did not hit you because you shouted at your mother, I know that you are well-mannered, but I hit you because you said I would jump and did not jump… I have never hit my children in my life… and my father is a big part of my conscience.”

The dialogue in the program touched on Ahmed El Sakka’s “generosity” and his keenness to attend most funerals to offer condolences, and his lack of participation in weddings and occasions, so he commented, saying: “May God not make me need anyone, nor make anyone need me. By nature, I might miss your wedding, I might apologize for missing a birthday, but that’s my nature. If someone I love is in trouble, I can’t afford not to be by his side.” Ahmed Saad interrupted him, saying: “And I swear to God, I can’t be by his side. I have a problem doing my duty.” El Sakka responded, saying: “You have to get rid of this habit so you can find someone to stand by you.”
