Laila Murad used to live in the building next to Sheikh Al Shaarawy, in Garden City, and once she met him and he welcomed her very much, and explained that all her questions indicated that she was a person committed to religion and wanted to know everything regarding Islam.

The text of the interview, as mentioned by the magazine, was as follows:
Laila Murad: I will ask a question, but you will not laugh at me.
Shaarawy: I like it.
Laila Murad: Women’s breasts are made to breastfeed the baby, right?
Shaarawy: Right.
Laila Murad: Ok, why does the man have breasts?
Al-Shaarawy said that he was very confused by this question and was very ashamed..not because he wanted to laugh, but in order to have a chance to respond. Al-Shaarawy replied: The wisdom of our Lord is in his creation.
