Our honorable colleague Youssef Berjawi, may God have mercy on him, may God have mercy on him and make his resting place in Paradise. He is the dean of the Arab sports journalism, and he will remain in memory as a symbol that we will not forget. It seems that he felt that he would leave us to the supreme comrade. He performed the rituals of Umrah before his death and was awarded by the Lebanese Republican Presidency the Medal of Merit. Al-Fadhi, in recognition of his services in the sports media, and his first book about his journalistic career was launched after he spent more than fifty years in the profession. He was not satisfied despite his illness. He continued to attend Arab, international and continental events in all parts of the world, so he became a familiar face. He visited us last February and followed the competitions of the International Basketball Championship. In Dubai, in May, we attended the meeting of the International Federation of Sports Press in South Korea, and there, may God have mercy on him, he gave us his book, which tells the story of this struggling man. He was keen to leave a good impact on everyone he met. His health kept him on the mattress for years, and yet he used to communicate with his colleagues daily without interruption. A good man we write about because he was a special case. He loved the Emirates and loved him and considered it his country. In all his trips, he must die here. He has personal relationships with a large number of our sports leaders who remember him well. “Science and Pen” has left us. This is the title of his valuable book, which tells his story that can serve as a lesson for generations. He is a person who is dear to my heart, because he is my companion in sporting events, the last of which was our meeting with him in Seoul three months ago. We parted, Abu Firas, and we do not know when we will meet, because he is of a different quality in the history of media. The Arab athlete won the International Olympic Committee and “FIFA” medal for those who covered ten Olympic tournaments and the World Cup. He attended 10 and dozens of regional, Arab and international tournaments, so that the Arab media person became the most participant in international sporting events. He also participated in 28 conferences of the International Federation .. Truly history walks on earth The owner of a school in struggle and humanity.. Goodbye, the kind-hearted dean of the Arab sports press
