as salamo alikom brothers

it is my first time to post in thi forum since long time so as im egyptain i will attract your attantion by the title of my message (do you know why we call egypt ( MISR in arabic))...

and now i will tell you why right now

Traditionally, it is held that Ham was one of the sons of Noah who moved southwest into Africa and parts of the near Middle East, and was the forefather of the nations there.
The Bible refers to Egypt as "the land of Ham"
The Hebrew word for Egypt was Mizraim and was the name of one of Ham's sons.
The Egyptian word for Egypt was Khem, plausibly the origin of the name Ham

see you very soon the egyptain tour leader
