Earlier, the footballer contributed to building an Azhar religious institute at his own expense, helped construct an ambulance unit for the ambulance authority in Gharbiya, and donated LE50 million to the National Cancer Institute after it was struck by a car bomb in 2019.

The Liverpool striker also established the Nagrig Charity Association in 2017, which helps take care of orphans, widows, the elderly and the sick and provides monthly cash assistance.

The association has helped roughly 400-500 people regularly.

Back in December 2018, Salah donated LE900,000 to the Bassioun General Hospital, and alongside his father, he also donated five acres of land to establish a sewage treatment plant in his home village, giving residents there a stable source of fresh, clean water.
