 hello , iam the owner of this website : husamorfali.com

 iam getting a fatal error :  Class 'WP_Widget' not found in public_html
 /wp-includes/widgets/class-wp-widget-pages.php on line 17

 first i opened wp-admin menu and i found 4.4 wp update
 so i pressed on " update automaticly " after 5 min i opened the website
 and i found first fatal error in Plugin " the social links " u deleted it
 then a new error shown " wp-statistics " i didnt delete it beacuse its
 improtant so i red in forums + google and changed the name of the file so

 a new error came :

 Fatal error:  Class 'WP_Widget' not found in /home/husonline/public_html
 /wp-content/plugins/wp-user-avatar/includes/class-wp-user-avatar-
 widget.php on line 9

 so i renamed the Plugins file in file manager " Cpanel " to
 Plugins.disabled
 and created a new folder named Plugins " empty folder "
 and then a new error came ...

 /public_html/wp-includes/widgets/class-wp-widget-pages.php on line 17

 so what i can do ?
 and is there a way to backup the articles
 and put a " Website is under maintenance " ??

 Thanks
