Real person: Engineer Habashi Girgis The character of "Ismail" is based on the engineer Habashi Girgis, considered the founder of Egyptian Radio, but the series presented the character in an inaccurate manner, which angered the audience and Girgis' granddaughter in particular.

Habashi Girgis' granddaughter attacks the makers of the series "The Text" After the ninth episode aired, Habashi Girgis' granddaughter expressed her displeasure on her Facebook account, asserting that the series made a grave mistake in portraying her grandfather as someone who lacked proficiency in English, when in fact Girgis was one of the first Egyptians to receive advanced education abroad.

Dissatisfaction with the inaccurate presentation of the character Habashi Girgis' granddaughter added in her comment on the series that she accepted the idea of presenting her grandfather within a fictional dramatic framework, but what she could not accept was portraying him as someone who needed a translator. She noted that Girgis had studied communications engineering in England in the early 1940s, and this information was easily accessible online.

The public is divided between fantasy and abuse of history. This controversy sparked a heated debate among the public, with opinions divided on the series. Some considered the work a fictional drama that allowed for some modifications, while others believed the series should adhere to historical accuracy when dealing with influential figures in Egyptian history.

Defending the series... Is it just a fictional drama? Some have defended the series, arguing that it does not aim to present an accurate biography of Habashi Girgis, but rather draws on real-life events and reframes them within a fictional dramatic framework.

Criticisms from fans of historical facts On the other hand, some insisted that altering historical facts could mislead the public, especially new generations who did not live through those periods. They believed that presenting historical figures inaccurately could give viewers false information.
