Nour has established Al-Ghad Party in 2000 that has been ratified by the Parties Affairs Committee. He was detained many times early in the 1980s. He worked as a journalist and joined the Journalists Syndicate. He remained the deputy editor-in-chief of Al-Wafd Newspaper for many years. He worked as a journalist and lawyer at the same time after the Constitutional Court decree allowing the combination of tow unions. He has been a Member of Parliament for Bab Al-Shaerya constituency.
After being charged with forging the party’s subscriptions, he was sentenced for five years in December 24, 2005. Nour, who has been the highest competitor in the recent Presidency elections, denied this charge.
