He extended his appreciation to Egyptian women, recognizing their invaluable contributions.
He also reflected on the spiritual essence of Ramadan, which fosters noble values such as kindness, tolerance, and love among people. He particularly acknowledged the presence of Christian fellow citizens at the Iftar, emphasizing that this longstanding tradition reflects the deep-rooted unity and cohesion of the Egyptian people, sending an unmistakable message of national harmony.
