Most of the people are Egyptian Arab, but you will come across man black people from Sudan, Somalia, Chad and other neighbouring countries. But if you go to those arabic schools you will come across many many western brothers from UK, Canada, US and other European countries.

Are you a convert? What ethnicity are you? I mean no disrespect brother, but a lot of what you are saying makes me wary of your intentions; I could very well be wrong though as I do not know what is in your heart.

I thought that aswell, but you are allowed to see them, to give you a reminder about the past, and see them as a sign

I'm sure the brothers Intentions are good Inshallah, I think his new to Islam, or new to practising so is unaware of alot of things we take for granted.
 
Egypt is an excellent country to get a quality education. Some of the finest Islamic schools can be found there. Going to Egypt for an education is an excellent choice. Provided that is your only intention.

To go to Egypt for any other purpose, except maybe as a sight seeing tourist can lead to many problems. Egypt has many distractions that can easily lead a person astray if they are not cautious. I have found that a non-Egyptian Muslim can run into many forms of fitna in Egypt. Also be aware Egyptian Arabic can be very difficult to understand if you speak any other dialect. If you do not speak Egyptian Arabic, use English as most Egyptians are very fluent in English.

brother are there differnt races in eygpt or are most of them arab and what are the races if anny?
 
Ahhh ok, cool.

In places where Islam is studied and taught you will probably find a mixture of all sorts of people- all different colors, nationalities, races. Alhamdullilah for the beautiful diversity of Islam.

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.

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.
