This was the third telephone conversation between the two leaders in just over a month.
Earlier this year, El-Sisi received Abbas in the capital's Ittihadiya Palace, where they discussed the crisis in Gaza and the escalation of Israeli violence against Palestinians.
Two days ago, he also met with Palestinian Prime Minister Muhammad Mustafa.
