Ajaran Islam di Mesir melarang adanya gereja, hanya Islam dan Mesjid saja yang dibolehkan karena Islam agama damai dan menghormati agama lainnya. Begitulah cara2 Islam menghormati dan menciptakan kedamaian dalam agamanya. Tidak beda dengan di Indonesia, jadi bukan cuma salah umatnya saja yang menjalankan ajaran Islam, tetapi sumber ajarannya juga sudah salah !!! Kebebasan beragama bukan seperti yang di Mesir ini, juga bukan kebebasan agama yang ada dalam Islam tetapi aniaya umat agama yang bukan Islam. > And closed churches are expected to stay that way.
