The Egyptian Ministry of Awqaf has announced the theme for this Friday's sermon, titled ‘Give People Their Due Status: Respecting Symbols.’ The sermon aims to revive the ethical practice of recognizing the value and status of individuals, particularly those with knowledge, merit, or seniority.

The message emphasizes the importance of honoring scholars and people of virtue to maintain social cohesion and dignity. It also addresses the dangers of disparagement and insults, specifically highlighting the need for etiquette in the digital age and on social media. The sermon promotes the idea that respecting social hierarchies and positions contributes to psychological stability and prevents the breakdown of generational bonds.
