Sharif Malikah (Arabic: شريف مليكة), an Egyptian poet, writer, and physician, was born in 1958.
After graduating from high school, he studied at Al-Qasr Al-Aini College at Cairo University and obtained a bachelor's degree in Medicine and Surgery in 1981.
In 1984, Malika immigrated to the United States to complete his medical studies and specialize in treating chronic pain.
[1][2] In 2000, Malikah wrote the first poems in colloquial Egyptian, but he did not publish them, as he used to write them only for himself and recite them to his family and friends.
One day, he received a call from one of his friends informing him that the Egyptian playwrights Alfred Farag wants to meet him and listen to his poems.
