An Egyptian father attends a graduation ceremony to receive the certificate of his deceased daughter

The pioneers of social networking sites in Egypt circulated a touching video clip, in which a father receives a certificate and a shield for his deceased daughter at her graduation ceremony, and provokes a great wave of sympathy.

The video showed the father, Omar Muhammad Asfour, among the colleagues of his late student daughter Amina, who died a few days before the ceremony, according to what was circulated on social networking sites.

The tears of the late student's classmates fell while her father stood among them, before the situation changed as soon as the name "Amina" was called, until the hall erupted with warm applause in tribute to the late young woman.

The father said, in press statements, that he was proud of his late daughter, especially as she was keen on the teachings of her religion, adding that he wished that she would receive her honor herself.
