The Editor-in-Chief's word
Al-Bahbahany's Time
Ramy Magdy
"In the famous Egyptian comic play "Eleyal Kebret", the name of Al-
Bahbahany gets cast on our ears by the protagonist Sultan al-Sukkari. It
sounds like a name of a sheikh or a cleric who indoctrinates Sultan and
his friends on religion, until one of Sultan’s brothers asks him "Who is
Al-Bahbahany ?" then we know that he is just a barber who brings
them together and instructs them in religion without specialization,
guidance or understanding. Al-Bahbahany reminds me of our current
context in which many come out to us through all means talking about
religion without sufficient credence. They preach in all strange and
incomprehensible ways without any qualification, unjustified except to
achieve more fame, traffic and viewership.
May God protect us from Al-Bahbahany "
