    “Religion which does not have an impact on culture is a toothless tiger.” This quote exemplifies the idea that if religion did not impact an individual‚ it would have the same effect of a ferocious tiger not being able to exert its force. From the Latin religio (the respect for what is sacred) and religare (to bind‚ in the sense of an obligation)‚ the word religion is an organised collection of belief and practice systems‚ focusing on what people determine to be sacred or spiritual.

    The British regime’s style of ruling Egypt was backed by the idea of imperialism which was not new for Britain in the early 20th century. Egypt was nothing more than another British colony in the Middle East. The British looked down on the Egyptians and believed that‚ while they may not have been at an intellectual disadvantage compared to the Brits‚ they still were not capable of governing themselves.
