Egyptian Friday sermons ban unauthorized photos

The article discussed the legal and ethical boundaries of taking photographs and documenting personal incidents or violations in Egypt. It emphasized the importance of distinguishing between using photography to document violations or public offenses that may need to be proven to relevant authorities, and infringing on individuals’ privacy or defaming them. The competent authorities clarified that the sanctity of privacy extends into the digital space and includes personal images and information, highlighting the need to obtain consent from individuals before publishing any visual material, and warning against turning such images into tools for defamation or invasion of private life. Legal and digital experts noted that photography is an important tool for collecting legitimate evidence, but it must be used responsibly and in compliance with the law. Egyptian law criminalizes photographing individuals in private settings without their permission and penalizes the publication or circulation of images that violate privacy. Recent practical cases were presented demonstrating how photography has led to security activities and judicial investigations when footage of violations or assaults was shared. The emphasis was on ensuring that the primary purpose is to serve public interest and to respect individuals’ privacy.
