Meanwhile, the Azhar warned that some persons claiming to be representatives of the top Sunni establishment appear on the mass media and speak in its name, appealing to journalists to observe accuracy and caution and avoid allowing anyone wearing Azhar costumes or speak in its name.

 “Not everyone who wore Azhar outfits, even though they may be graduates of the Azhar, has the right to speak in its name,” said the Azhar in a statement on Thursday (July 12). [Dīyā’ Abū al-Safā, al-Akhbār, July 13, p. 3] Read original text in Arabic
