Naglaa Ali Mahmoud (Arabic: نجلاء على محمود, IPA: [ˈnæɡlæ ˈʕæli mæħˈmuːd] or [næɡˈlæːʔ -]; 4 July 1962) is the widow and cousin of the fifth President of Egypt, Mohamed Morsi and was First Lady from 2012 to 2013.
Naglaa rejected the title of First Lady, preferring to be called "First Servant", the "president's wife", or "Umm Ahmed", a traditional honorific (kunya) which means mother of Ahmed, her oldest son.
Personal life
Naglaa married former president of Egypt Mohamed Morsi in 1979 when she was a seventeen-year-old student. Naglaa and Morsi have five children, including Abdullah and six grandchildren.
