Arabic text 'دستور جمهورية مصر العربية - إبريل 2019' issued by the House of Representatives General Secretariat, amended per the referendum of 20-22 April 2019. The PDF binary returned 403 to curl, so the text was obtained through the Exa fetch tool (extracted text of that PDF); the SIS English PDF in the links file fails TLS validation. Extracted Arabic has glyph-order artifacts (for example 'ميالدية' for 'ميلادية'); quotes are given exactly as extracted.
