Mohamed Morsi (June 17, 2019).
In history there are names that are never forgotten.. I mean in the beautiful pages, there are those who are not forgotten either, but in the miserable pages.
You are an "icon" of the most beautiful color.

my country and if it Opressed me is dear to me
The pioneers of the communication sites circulated the most prominent sayings of the late president, especially the words of his last speech before the coup, "so that our children know that their fathers and grandfathers were men, who do not accept oppression and never accept the opinion of corrupt people, and they never give the world to their homeland, legitimacy or religion."
They also circulated his words about the Prophet Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, on the platform of the United Nations General Assembly, and his defense of Gaza in the face of the Israeli bombing, and the verse “My country and if it neighbors me is dear.. and my family and if they hate me,” which was the last words of Dr. Morsi in court. On the day of his death, his lawyer told Anadolu Agency.
A number of activists and politicians also published various positions of the late president, which demonstrated the cleanliness of his hand, tongue and heart, his dedication to serving his nation, and his steadfastness on the truth in all his positions, which led to his disposal in this way, including a number of his former opponents.
The last thing President Mohamed Morsi said before his death during his trial session: “I have secrets that I asked the court for a secret session to disclose, and the court refused, so I will not reveal these secrets until my death in the interest of the country’s security and sovereignty.”
The difference between him and Sisi, who sold Egypt and Nilha!

Why do you live in your own house and not live in presidential palaces like other presidents?
- Why do I leave my house, there I meet people and pray with them, whether my house is in Zagazig or my apartment in the assembly, but the presidential palaces are just offices, and they are a temporary place.

In his last speech when he said,
“The challenge is great (and you) are able to face this,”
I asked myself why he said (you) and did not say (we)?
I felt at that time that the president was bidding farewell to his people, and that the ship would struggle with the waves without a captain, and that the president, with these words, had mourned himself for the people.
May God forgive the martyr president #Mohamed_Morsi and accept him among the righteous
