Egypt faces controversy over polygamy posts
Social media users in Egypt circulated an announcement about a paid training course on "Multiple Marriages." The course was led by a man known as a Salafi preacher and was offered for 400 Egyptian pounds (approximately 6.8 euros). The advertisement sparked widespread mockery, as some users believed that turning a sensitive social issue like polygamy into a short course diminishes its complexity and reduces it to simple tips. The promotion was characterized by colloquial language and included content advocating for polygamy based on religious sayings, despite criticism from Al-Azhar scholars who considered this to be "commodifying religion" and deviating from the true religious texts. This incident comes at a time when the Egyptian Parliament is discussing a draft personal status law, amid growing debate over family issues and marital relations in Egypt.
