Egypt's Sisi warns against protests on anniversary of 2011 revolt
Published in Albawaba on 23 - 12 - 2015

Egypt's President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi congratulated the Egyptians and Muslims all over the world on the memory of Prophet Mohamed's Birth on Tuesday. He called for adopting the prophet's approach in life to provide the world with the true image of Islam as a moderate religion.
He added, "Islam's message that we received from the prophet came to strengthen the direct relation between the human being and God and to support the people's freedom and to get them rid of slavery."
The Egyptian president stressed the need for turning such heritage of tolerance and cooperation into a way of living to achieve the God's will to gather between all people regardless of their religions.
ِAl-Sisi called on the preachers for refuting the extremist ideas undermining the message of Islam and smearing the Muslims image in front of the world, stressing that the tolerance is not contradicting with the Islamic teachings.
Regarding the parliamentary elections, the Egyptian president praised accomplishing the country's road map, appreciating the role performed by the Egyptian woman. He added that the new parliament will open the door for the Egyptian state to resume its way to build a better future.
Al-Sisi warned opposition forces not to organize protests on Jan. 25 to mark the anniversary of the 2011 uprising, saying a new revolt risked destroying the country.
Opposition groups including the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood, families of political prisoners, and left-wing activists are calling for mass demonstrations on Jan. 25, 2016 -- which marks five years since the start of an 18-day uprising that ended autocratic president Hosni Mubarak's 30-year grip on power.
"Why am I hearing calls for another revolution? Why do you want to ruin (Egypt)? I came by your will and your choice and not despite it," Al-Sisi said in a speech marking the Prophet Mohammed's birthday, which this year falls on Dec. 23.
"Look around you to nearby countries, some of which I don't like to name, which have been suffering for 30 years and have not been able to come back. States that have been destroyed do not return."
The president expressed his solidarity with the Egyptian poor families, stressing his keenness to provide the basic commodities in low prices in the Egyptian markets to ease their burdens.
The Egyptian president added, "The dignity of the Egyptian citizen is one of the major priorities and a pillar of the state's stability. We should work together to support the mutual respect between the citizen and different state institutions."
