Modern Egypt

Nashwá al-Hūfī comments on Muslim-Christian relations in Egypt.

There is a relationship of a special kind between the nation and the Copts. That relationship was represented in individual Copts who were rich or highly educated who had special relationships with the governor. The author is of the opinion that if a group of Muslim and Christian wise men is formed and if the President takes the initiative and meets with them Egypt can expect to come out safe from this series of crises that affect Egypt’s reputation outside and might affect its unity.
