The Sash of Honour (Arabic: وشاح الشرف, romanized: wišāḥ aš-šaraf) is a state decoration of Sudan established in 1956[1] after Sudan independence.[2] It is given to Sudanese who have excelled in service to the nation. It may be given to foreign governments and heads of state, but shall not be given to more than fifteen living recipients.[3]
For the awards instituted after 1961, it is not permissible to repeat awarding of decorations and medals, or to rise from one class to a higher one, except after the lapse of at least three years from the date of awarding them. This period is reduced to one year for employees if they are referred to retirement, and the Sports Medal is excluded from the period condition. Orders and medals remain the property of the awardee, and their heirs as a souvenir without any of them having the right to carry it. Without prejudice to any other punishment stipulated in the laws of Sudan, it is permissible, by order of the President of the Republic, to strip the bearer of a necklace, sash, medal, medallion, cloak of honour, or belt if they commit an act that is dishonourable or inconsistent with loyalty to the state.[2]
