Osman Ahmed Osman - Daly TV Show

Daly TV Show

In Ramadan 2007, a TV series featuring Nour Al-Sherif was aired on Arabic satellite channels. Many people drew parallels between the main character of the show (Saad El-Daly), and Osman Ahmed Osman, but the creators of the show have denied basing that character on Osman. The Osman family was reportedly unhappy with the show, claiming that the show drew on Osman's early life and rise from poverty into success, while showing the main character as a corrupt, greedy, crime-linked tycoon after his success.

Famous quotes containing the words daly and/or show:

    If God is male, then male is God. The divine patriarch castrates women as long as he is allowed to live on in the human imagination.
    —Mary Daly (b. 1928)

    When the LORD your God brings you into the land that you are about to enter and occupy...and you defeat them, then you must utterly destroy them. Make no covenant with them and show them no mercy. Do not intermarry with them, giving your daughters to their sons or taking their daughters for your sons, for that would turn away your children from following me, to serve other gods.
    Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 7:1-4.
