During an Iftar gathering organized by the Egyptian Armed Forces in Cairo, President El-Sisi jokingly asked Samah Hussein, "Where's the qataif, Hussein?" to which Hussein responded laughing, "They've all been eaten, Mr. President," which lightened the atmosphere among the attendees. In another conversation about the program, El-Sisi asked about the cost of advertising for the show. Hussein replied, "We, Mr. President, made the program for the sake of God, and we didn't spend a penny on advertising, but the Egyptians took care of that and did the best advertising for the program." El-Sisi humorously followed up with, "So, since you didn't spend money on advertising, how much profit did you make from the program?" which caused everyone to laugh.

The minister presented Hussein with a copy of the book *What Happened to the Egyptians?* by the renowned author Galal Amin, along with a ministry shield, a certificate of appreciation, and a copy of the Holy Quran. Dr. Al-Azhari emphasized that the content of "Qataif" reflects creativity and conveys moral, ethical, and humanitarian messages that contribute to enhancing societal values and building cultural awareness. He highlighted that conscious art plays a crucial role in the journey of enlightenment and the formation of the Egyptian character.
The "Qataif" program airs daily on Samah Hussein's social media platforms, delivering ethical and humanitarian messages in a straightforward style that is suitable for all age groups.

Egyptian artist Lotfi Labib dies at 77
Ammon News - Egyptian artist Lotfi Labib passed away on Wednesday after a long struggle with illness at the age of 77. Head of the Actors Syndicate in Egypt, Ashraf Zaki, announced a sudden deterioration in the health of Egyptian actor Lotfi Labib. Lotfy Labib, born 18 August 1947, was an Egyptian stage, television and film actor. He also worked as an announcer at one point. Despite having graduated from the Institute of Theatrical Arts in 1970, Labib's career was delayed for a whole decade. First, he was drafted in the army for six years, and then travelled outside Egypt for four years. His career truly started in 1981, when he acted in the play "The Bald Singer," which he followed with another stage production "The Hostages." Labib has since then worked profusely, in many supporting but memorable roles, with over 200 film and television credits. Though many of his screen appearances have been brief, Labib has performed admirably and has shown himself to be one of the strongest performers of his generation. He has appeared in 387 sequels (series, movies, radio and more.) since 1988.

The track delivers a bold and thoughtful message through expressive lyrics that touch on social values and human dignity. Al Jassmi brings his signature warmth and depth, offering a heartfelt interpretation that blends meaning and melody with emotional nuance.

The project reflects Al Jassmi's modern artistic vision and commitment to showcasing the richness and diversity of Arabic music in its many forms.
