Career

In 2013, El Sharif started his career by publishing his first poem ″Professor Abu Lahab bin Abd Manaf”, on his YouTube channel.

In early 2014, El Sharif introduced the Cheb Ashraf character in a video on YouTube. The story revolves around the Cheb Ashraf, a personality who appears to be hypocritical of the Egypt's government. He stopped presenting the Cheb Ashraf show permanently, in order to focus on Abdullah Al-Sharif show. He presents Abdullah ELshrif, a satirical political talk show on YouTube every Thursday, regarding the events of Egypt and other Arab countries after Arab spring.[10]

El Sharif briefly presented two shows " Houda and Abbouda" and "Bus" on Al Jazeera Mubasher.[11] [12]

Harassment

In March 2020, El Sharif shared a video showing an Egyptian army officer kicking the body of a civilian in Sinai, mutilating one of his fingers and then setting his body on fire. The video was shared widely on social media. After he aired the video, Egyptian security forces arrested two of his brothers[13] [14] and he was sentenced to 25 years in prison in absentia. [15] On November 10, 2022, El Sharif announced through his Twitter account that security forces arrested his brother after his mother and sister visited him.

On November 7, 2022 the security agency arrested his father, “Muhammad El Sharif”. In the meantime, a security source denied the news and declared that El Sharif’s father was summoned to examine financial transfers received from abroad and alerted him to provide necessary documents.[16]
