The article details the million-dollar contract that Engineer Ibrahim Al-Ma'allam signed with writer Naguib Mahfouz, clarifying that it was not a final purchase of his rights for a million pounds, but rather an advance payment against the intellectual property rights owed to him over the long term. The matter began after an issue related to a previous agreement, in which Mahfouz's electronic rights were sold for 56,000 pounds. Following negotiations with Gamal El-Ghitani, Al-Ma'allam sought to reclaim these rights and ensure Mahfouz's interests were fairly protected. The amount was increased from 750,000 to one million pounds, with the understanding that this sum was a partial payment towards the rights, not a final settlement. A quarter of the amount was designated as a bank deposit for charitable work, while the rest was allocated to Mahfouz's wife and daughter. The article explains that the goal of the agreement was to make the largest financial deal for Mahfouz involving an Egyptian publisher, rather than an international prize, in order to secure his financial and historical rights.
