Ain Shams University always interacts with the events and issues of the homeland, and when the July 1952 revolution took place, Ain Shams University (Ibrahim Pasha Al-Kabeer University) issued a statement of support for Commander-in-Chief Muhammad Naguib from the faculty staff and the General Union of Students in it, and it contains :
A statement from the faculty staff at Ibrahim Pasha Al-Kabeer University and the General Union of Students in which the country has been afflicted by the factors of division, corruption and dissolution with which every attempt at reform has failed, until people almost believe that there is no way to escape from the abyss in which the homeland is plunged, so the valiant army to which the hand of corruption has extended to threaten its entity and undermine its structure and take from it a tool used for its malicious purposes, rises up with glory and majesty, attacks corruption, and advances the ranks with determination to eliminate the factors and tools of corruption, adopting a constitution for his movement that came as clear as interpreting the feelings and goals of the people, and no wonder, as he calls for purification, reform, respect for the constitution, and the preservation of public freedoms.
At this crucial stage in the life of the nation, we call upon the citizens to purify themselves and forget their personalities, so that they only remember Egypt.. only Egypt , so that the procession of reform and advancement proceeds swiftly towards a homeland of strong and sound structure, where reform prevails in its moral, social, economic, cultural and political aspects. A new people will be resurrected and blessed with glory and supremacy, and its citizens will enjoy pride and dignity, and they will live as masters in their countries, worthy of the freedom they have gained and the honorable future that awaits them until their country assumes its place among the nations of honor and dignity.
