Comparison of Arab News Channels' Performance on YouTube: Al Jazeera vs Al Arabiya

How did your content creation journey begin? Did you ever expect to reach this level of popularity and influence?

I started with a sincere heart and genuine effort on the Younow platform, presenting diverse content that blends humor with real interaction with my audience. I never expected my YouTube channel to reach 5 million subscribers with over 600 million views. All this success is due to consistency and perseverance despite difficulties, and I'm grateful that the Arab audience supported me with genuine love and conviction.

The Lifestyle Award you recently won—what does it mean to you personally? Do you feel additional responsibility toward your audience?

This award represents recognition of my effort and the value of the content I provide to millions of followers. I indeed feel great responsibility now, not only in content quality but in the messages I convey. I want to be a positive role model, especially for Arab youth who follow me. This award reminds me to continue presenting meaningful content that reflects both our Arab and humanitarian values.

You faced significant controversy over your recent visit to Algeria with certain female content creators. How do you handle this type of criticism?

This kind of controversy comes with fame and influence. I respect different values and cultures in each Arab country, and I understand that my actions may provoke varied reactions. But I also remember that I'm a 22-year-old young man trying to live his life naturally. What matters to me is continuing to respect the boundaries of each community, while being authentic with myself and my audience.
