If you speak the Lebanese Arabic, it is very similar to the Egyptian Arabic and should be understandable in Egypt. Algerian Arabic is nearly impossible to use in Egypt. I speak Moroccan and never had any trouble in Algeria, but was completely lost in Egypt.

I think it's easier for me to understand Lebanese or Egyptian Arabic than Moroccan or algerian Arabic...:D

Egypt is virtually 100% Eastern Hamitic in race. The Hamitic people are Egyptian, Bedouin and Berber. They are considered to be Aryan Caucasian stock, very closely related to Iranians.

But you will find very large numbers of non-citizen people of nearly every race and nationality living there. However, I have seldom seen any Arabs in Egypt, but it was over 30 years ago when I last visited Egypt. I believe that there are now very many Palestinian refugees living in Egypt.

Sorry .. but we don't look like iranians .. we have more of the looks of the Mediterranean sea looks .. I've been to Italy, Spain, Greece and south of France .. we have a lot in common in terms of looks .. but not iranian.

if you are an american than it can easily be described that we have almost the same color of skin as mexicans :)
 
Im Egyptian, and I know that Egypt is not a religious place. Its just like the UK, but with more muslims. Theres the Azhar Place, I think.
There are nightclubs, pubs, bars, hotels, half naked ladies ... sound familiar?

All countries have things like this, but in places like Iran and Saudi Arabia they're underground, and things take place behind closed doors.

Going study in Al-Azhar is a dream of many Islamic student in my country.
Ironically, last year a case was happened, some Indonesian parliament members went to Egypt and they visit a casino. That case made me shocked. Egypt has casino ??!!.

i will be attending Al-azhar in the near future..for now im studing for the entrance exam

Alsalamo alykom wa rahmato Allah wa barakato brother.
are you graduated from a collage or high school?
of course if u r graduated from high school then the best place I recommend is Alazhar universty.
while if u r graduated from a collage ( don`t matter which career )then there is an islamic institute in Egypt only for high graduated people ,it accept people from all nationalities,and applying there is easy ,just u have to be fluent at arabic as they utilize only arabic language .one of my relatives was studing there and she told me that it is a great place and there is a very nice atmosphere there as students love each other for the sake of Allah .If ur interested let me know then in shaa Allah I can give u there phone number or I can call them and ask about any question u like in shaa Allah .

don`t worry about being from a deffrent race ,Egyptian people r very friendly so u will feel that u r one of them just in a few minites in shaa Allah (yes believe me :) )
May Allah helps and guides u and all muslims.
 
I personally prefer saudi universities over al azhar , Just my personal opinion.

Also if one is to study under shoyukh in egypt i suggest Sheikh Raslan.

Assalam O Alikum

its for high graduated only because in this institute u study first two years about Islam (for example: hadith ,worship,islamic history .....etc)(Deploma)
and then if u get average grade C atleast u will be allowed in shaa Allah to do your masters degree in something related to your career and Islam at the same time, for example if u studied law befor u can make masters in the deffrent between Law in ur country and Islamic law,if u studied websites design u can do it in how to improve Islamic sites,...etc ,sowhatever ur career is ,u can do masters degree related to it and Islam.
and of course if u get masters degree and liked to begin ur PhD there u can in shaa Allah.
Deplom or Master or PhD degree from this institute is equal to that from Alazhar or any egyptian univeristy .
