Male students wearing traditional white Azhari caps (Taqiyya) sit at wooden desks facing a teacher standing at a blackboard inside an Al-Azhar affiliated school classroom in Qena, Upper Egypt. Al-Azhar schools form part of Egypt's oldest and most prominent Islamic educational institution, offering a curriculum that combines religious studies with general education. The scene reflects the continued role of Al-Azhar in providing structured religious and academic education across Egypt's governorates.
