Furthermore, Article No. (25) of the same law prohibits any candidate from receiving funds for electoral campaigning from any source, whether within or outside the kingdom. Additionally, the law mandates in Article No. (26) that all visual, auditory, and printed media, among others, must treat candidates equally in their media coverage to ensure their neutrality and impartiality towards any of the candidates. 5. Finally, the law stipulates in Article No. (27) the cessation of all electoral campaigning activities throughout the kingdom 24 hours before the designated voting time. This period is known as the "electoral silence period," during which no candidate is allowed to appear in the media to discuss any matters related to the elections or engage in any activity or actions that fall within the scope of election promotion and campaigning to gain the favor of voters, especially gathering in tents and electoral headquarters. 6. In continuation of the legal provisions concerning electoral campaigning, Decree Law No. (14) of 1973 on Advertisement Regulation stipulates the requirements for obtaining necessary licenses for electoral advertising. It prohibits advertisements from violating public security, public morals, religious beliefs, or obstructing traffic movement. Additionally, advertisements should be harmonious and aim to beautify the area. 54
