Been awhile since I looked at this module, but it may do what you want.

However ... I would discourage the use of dynamic menus in navigation.

In general, navigation should be consistent.

Have you tried Taxonomy Menu?

I'm having difficulties understanding what you want to do. Please help.

Is it important that the menu follows a taxonomy, or is it enough to have a menu that changes every day?
What kind of menu posts are you planning for?
* general (sports, politics, science...), or
* topic specific (the olympic games, the election, the XX scandal...), or
* article specific (that is, direct links to the most recent articles)?

Are you using taxonomy on your website today? Is it links to these categories you want?
Have you tried the Taxonomy Menu module yet? If so - in which way did it not work for you?

My Arabic isn't that good, but...

I'm not very good at Arabic, but it seems the categories you are refering to are "Sunday - community, Monday - Avia, Tuesday..."

If you're not going to change the categories every day, I think the solution you are looking for is the following:

  • Create a vocabulary/taxonomy titled "Weekdays" or so. Associate the vocabulary with your article node type(s).
  • Add the terms "Sunday - community", "Monday - ..."
  • In the articles, make sure you categorize them into the appropriate categories.
  • Add menu posts that link to the category pages. This could be done automatically with an extra module, but the easiest way is to do it manually.

Good luck.
