The Royal Grace, a tradition renewed by His Majesty the King on every occasion, is considered a distinctive symbol of Morocco’s collective heritage. It sends a strong message about the importance of compassion and forgiveness, values that strengthen the social fabric and promote harmony within the nation, highlighting the benevolence and empathy that characterize the reign of His Majesty the King.
An ancestral practice, Royal Grace is distinguished by its human yet eminently sovereign character, which rises above passing circumstances. It is also the fruit of a culture of reconciliation and clemency rooted in the Kingdom’s millennia-old history, which is not subject to any foreign pressure, falling directly in line with a thousand-year-old tradition firmly rooted in the habits and customs of the Kingdom of Morocco.
Contrary to what certain hostile parties might assert or suggest, this benevolent gesture from the Sovereign is in no way the result of pressure or blackmail, but rather the result of His personal desire to see the beneficiaries reunited with their loved ones… provided that they are worthy of it, by beginning a responsible citizen life and by working to defend the sacred causes of the Nation.
