He was born in the village of Behnbay, seven kilometers from Zagazig, to Coptic parents. He was known for his extensive interest in culture, and his firm conviction in thought as a guarantor of progress and prosperity. Salama Moussa belonged to a group of Egyptian intellectuals, including Ahmed Lotfi El-Sayed, who called for the simplification of the Arabic language and its grammar and the recognition of the Egyptian colloquial. Their argument was that the Arabic language had not changed for generations, and that most Egyptians were illiterate, prompting Moses and others to demand writing in the vernacular. He was a student of Naguib Mahfouz, who influenced him by saying to him, "You have a great talent, but your articles are bad," which prompted Naguib Mahfouz to carefully select his subjects.
