Threatened in Egypt's Christian Hood! 🇪🇬

- Опубликовано: 13 авг 2024
- I visited Mansheya Nasir, also known as garbage city, one of the only Christian neighbourhoods in all of Egypt. Most people were very welcoming, some not so much...
I tried to be an investigative journalist and discover what garbage city (Mansheya Nasir) is all about. Garbage city is a neighbourhood in Cairo, Egypt responsible for the waste management of the whole city! I didn't get to learn to much about the process, but don't stress! Next video I post I get shown around by a local who tells me all about garbage city. The reason why I didn't get a chance to learn much about this interesting place is because very few people here speak English. ALSO some dude got very mad at me and threatened me with a sharp piece of metal. So at that point i was pretty bummed and really didn't care much about the garbage any more. There was a cool church in a cave that I went to see but besides that, all I mostly saw was garbage... lots and lots of garbage. What a crazy place!

You were not being kicked out bro. They were trying to tell you the back street was blocked.
They are not Catholics, they are Coptic (orthodox). The hitting the hand thing they meant to say the street is a “dead end”
bro wth is wrong with him. al salam aleikum isn't a muslim thing
@@El.Masree انت مصري
Christian egyptians are mostly orthodox not catholic
coptic
True and muslim Egyptians are coptic as well, but the coptic Christian Church is still keeping the original coptic language alive. As a muslim egyptian myself, I am honoured and really thankful that they kept our heritage alive ❤
muslims are not copts and will never be copts, they killed us for our language and religion and now all of a sudden want to be copts. you are arab invaders who pose as egyptians.@@El7OSS
@@El7OSSthat's not true. The Muslims are of Arab descent, not coptic. Copts are the Egyptians that lived in Egypt from the ancient Egyptians to the Islamic invasion. They are not the same but they have been heavily mixed mostly by now. But you can still see differences between Muslim Egyptians and Christian ones.
@@El7OSSno Muslims are not they are Arabs how invaded Egypt
Why aren’t you using an easily accessed translator on your phone to ask in Arabic? Just an idea it could help with the communication barrier since you get offended when they don’t understand lol.
I could just picture the Egyptians being SOOO CONFUSED LMAO
Great video, thank you for sharing your experience. No, they are not kicking you out, they are saying it's an end street and were assuming you are looking for the monastry. They are not Catholic, Coptic orthodox.
Just orthodox, Coptic doesn't relate to religion.
@@GabrieLightno they are literally coptic orthodox as they differentiate from other orthodox churches like the Greek and Russian. So he is correct in saying coptic orthodox.
I love how the fraze " I love you " is so universal.❤
I appreciate the fact that you don't act like a know-it-all and just exploring and being curious about things.
Oh, and to quote you "Be an idiot" lol
Haha some times tho I wish I knew more and had some knowledge but I find its fun just trying to go and figure it out
@@sealontour When I said I would go and photograph some trash, it was considered disrespectful on your part. You should show the trash of a country first and photograph the homeless in the streets.
They werent kicking you out bro. Msaker means closed. They were trying to gesture its locked
Picture someone from the Middle East visiting the US and approach everyone on the street with a camera and a loud and goofy voice, saying "Hi," "Hello," and "Thank you." to everyone he encounters. Despite that nobody understands his language, he continues to speak it and complains about the fact nobody understands him.
Hey, put in some effort to communicate, saying "Shukran Shukran" like that isn't really cool.
There are actually in other middle eastern/north african countries where people react good - but not the first time i hear egyptians are not responding same way - they are more gloomy and less welcoming than middle easterners - so i heard and saw in many travel vlog videos.
Do you have more videos of you exploring Christian stuff? I really enjoyed this😊
You mean churches and chapels?!
@@GabrieLight no just generally Christian stuff and places

You're an Islamophobic!

You know what it is! 😏
Wow when I first saw this video on TikTok I know it would be amazing it's really had to find fluent English in Egypt but I do understand a little bit of Arabic you. U did well tryna interact with the Locals
Thank you so much!!
As an Egyptian i am really sad about how the poor areas in my country are full of ignorance and misery 😢
كل ده بسبب النمو السكاني ابن الشرموطة اللي عيشنا. مش فاهم الحكومة كانت بتعمل ايه
what does poor area mean? all egypt is one pile of garbage
Coptic women wear hijab?
@@spacedustyNot really , Some of them wear small headscarves like nuns rarely
@@mazendubberzone5168 I heard Coptic men would have a cross tattoo, so people wouldn't greet them assalamualaikum
Thank you for sharing ✌🏻
Thanks for watching!
Oh. I bet singing at that church would be awesome. And i love your video! It was like walking around with you and just meeting everyday normal people.
Christian arabs all say salam alaikum and use thr word allah
As an Egyptian Muslim person , That's true
Wow, he was not impressed to be in a 10th century cave church. He thought it was weird to find Christians in Egypt. Oh my.
I thought it was cool, It's just hard for me to make a good video and be enthusiastic when there was not much happening in there.
See maybe if you read the brief introduction going into the church, you would not have said that ‘they are Catholic’ and just sounded completely ignorant.
1:11 Just tell me how you can turn garbage into plastics? How do you do it?
He means process the plastics from the garbage and recycle the recyclable plastic.
@@rileysmall4317 there is no such thing as recyclable plastic.
@@bogusawwierzynski2789 reusable*
@@bogusawwierzynski2789 are you trying to educate others on the recyclability of plastic? Because if so that's fine you just didn't have to do it in such a round-about way. I'm willing to bet you understood what he meant but took what he literally said as some form of semantic game as that's quite common on all forms of social media where people pretend they can't read between the lines and enjoy correcting others on trivial sentences that mean absolutely nothing in the real world. Not trying to be rude or anything I just find it somewhat odd lol, you could've just stated that no plastics are recyclable in the first place if your intentions were to educate.
@@rileysmall4317 I say what I want to say in my comments, not satisfy your expectations, whatever they might be, or to explain myself to you in any way. I hope that`s clear enough to you now.
This guy that is from North America possibly part Indigenous is an instigator mischeif maker by his attitude like he owns the place. No your approach and manner or attitude is the problem which is rude of you to be like and considered in Egypt as said. No wonder why you shouldn't complain as said obviously.
Did I miss the part where someone threatened you?
You must have
I.m Egyptian and i.m happy for coming you to Egypt but it isn.t advisable to go to folk places in Egypt
I advise you to go to toursitic places
Why? Everyone was friendly to him.
The church is called St. Simon's Church (Kanisa St. Sama'an), you could have checked before you set out to find it.
Forgive me, but what’s that region showing at 1:52 called?
As a Brazilian i have a dream of visiting Egypt, i like the place and its history, geography as well.
No they didn't kicked u out... They war warning u about the road is blocked
Ya that is what I figured they meant with their hands after
That's why knowing language is so important!
@@riseuplight it is, but it's too hard to learn in a short period of time
There is no such thing as a Christian neighbourhood in Egypt!
It's just that Christians are a minority in Egypt, and when an area has an equal population of both religions, they refer to it as a Christian area. even There is a proof of this as you can see women wearing niqabs and hijabs and the sound of adhan in the area. besides all that, you weren't even threatened, you just didn't understand what the locals were telling you. It's best to have a native escort with you while traveling in Egypt. and lastely what were you thinking whem you wrote that title ?!!!!
Its sad to see that the Christians in Egypt are forced to live near the garbage
I was asking and it has nothing to do with them being Christian and living with garbage.
The story is; back in the beginning of the 20's century cairo were full of garbage and some migrants christians from upper egypt work on collecting and recycling it hand to hand with Muslims and they were able to make more profit from it cuz they were able to raise pigs that eats organic waste wile Muslims can't cuz it's haram. so, day after day those people invites their families, friends and a lot of people from upper egypt to come and work in that profitable industry located in that isolated area far from cairo. Egypt didn't force any body to in garbage city. We are all Egyptians and religion is not a thing that we can use to judge or differentiate between each other.
@@sealontour don't deny that they are greatly persecuted though.
@@SomeTallGuy864 Naw my statement stands
The christians of Egypt are rich er than the muslims of Egypt They earn alot of money from garbage and The recycling of it lam Egyptian and l know what I say
why you didn't use your translator in your phone, you had internet, what a siilly way to waste your time.
He said he had no data
The Coptic didn't threaten you. All he said is that you're respectful. Don't assume the worse out of people.
Loved the video - some people would cringe at exploring new cultures, new faces, new norms... I did have one question - when you approached the church and said "I don't really care to know much about it" - why not? I think the history surrounding such a place (considering the minority Christian status in Egypt) would have been so interesting? Not a Christian myself - but kind of seemed like a missed opportunity there? Such a unique place.
At any rate, thanks for the upload. You have a way with people - which is what makes you so suited (I believe) to navigating new spaces. Very open mind you have.
All the best! Look forward to the next upload - learn a bit more about "garbage city."
Honestly I was just way to tired to read and want to sit. But for the most part I try not to do too much history here and just keep things funa nd upbeat
Christian status are not bad in egypt
@@mohamedali-pr9rl LIAR. They are victim of discrimination everywhere. They keep silent...
In fact, as an Egyptian, I feel distressed and saddened by these videos, and unfortunately they are real, and this is the reality of random Egypt. No one speaks English and there is no culture. Also, there is a lot of garbage and ignorance everywhere.
I’m originally from Ukraine 🇺🇦 now live in Seattle , WA 30 years now & I am a Christian Pentecostal. Love ur videos super 👍
Thank you very much :)
Bless you brother 🙏🏻✝️
Bro those carvings in the rock face at the religious site was amazing holy shit were those real?
Google “the cave church Egypt”
This guy accessed one of the most historical land marks in Egypt dating back to 9th century, also where the holy family hid from Herod. The only way to reach is to go through an entire city of trash, and he didn’t bother to read the bio on the wall.
u are very brave......nice video
They were trying to give you direction to a famous Church there
Dude you Are in a lower income area
This place looks wild af
They were upset with you whenever you greeted them with a Muslim greeting 😂
I doubt that
1. It has nothing to do with Islam
2. He is white and they understand he isn't arab
Who told you that, smart guy?!
Christians here salute us Muslims with the same greeting!

You do realize there's a thing called Google translate that would make things a whole lot easier

By the way Christian in Arabic is Maseehi
What about nassara?
@@onpurpose9719 Nassara is a pre-Christian Jewish gnostic heretic sect, they existed before Christianity, Christians at that time were called Khristianos, if translated into Arabic: Masihi
4:30 he was offering to give you directions to the monastry
catholics are few in egypt most is coptic orthodox
Which city man?
But you know what’s funny the Christian Arabs never beg. You saw it with your own eyes.
Not sure why would you need to explore garbage city , why did you go on your own when you can not speak the language, you should use Google translate, no one is telling you not to go , they were saying No EXIT..you are acting with them as they all speaks english .
Yeah that’s the Coptic ( Oriental Orthodox City ) & Selam Walechim is perfectly fine
Chai ?
Tea, shay
Learn a language before you go somewhere or if it’s on the humbug just don’t go
Arabic isn’t a language you can just pick up in 2 weeks
Salam AlMasih

It's not allowed for a Moslem to answer salam aleikum (Wa-Alaikum-Salaam,) because it's written down in the Koran. But I like your way to act. I know and thay know you didn't know it. But you as a guest, we need to be nice and friendly to you, it's also written down in the Koran. I wish you all the best Habibi
وَهُمْ صَـغِرُونَ
(and feel themselves subdued.), disgraced, humiliated and belittled. Therefore, Muslims are not allowed to honor the people of Dhimmah or elevate them above Muslims, for they are miserable, disgraced and humiliated. Muslim recorded from Abu Hurayrah that the Prophet said,
«لَا تَبْدَءُوا الْيَهُودَ وَالنَّصَارَى بِالسَّلَامِ، وَإِذَا لَقِيتُمْ أَحَدَهُمْ فِي طَرِيقٍ فَاضْطَرُّوهُ إِلَى أَضْيَقِه»
(Do not initiate the Salam to the Jews and Christians, and if you meet any of them in a road, force them to its narrowest alley.) This is why the Leader of the faithful `Umar bin Al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, demanded his well-known conditions be met by the Christians, these conditions that ensured their continued humiliation, degradation and disgrace.

i can help you for free to translate and make it easy to connect with others :D
Ah money the universal word
yooo. the commentary is beyond offensive and also superiority complex-eurocentric. Gross
There's no need to get upset about Arabs, there's a strong tolerance for Christianity, yes, the problem is that there are more Christians in Arabia, it's not a problem that there are a lot of Christians in Arabia, yes, Arab countries there respect each other, respect peaceful tolerance, that's why they think positively and work hard, Arab countries are developed there, they're different from Indonesia, I see. It's funny that Islamic figures claim that I am a descendant of the Prophet's grandson, which is destroying the Muslim community itself, from the doctrine of vilifying the political government and to the elements that disrupt Christian religious worship, namely the stress group of Balawi Riziq Bahar FPI 212 et al. Yes, yes, the doctrine of Muslims in remote villages is easy to follow. lack of religion and Indonesian history and it's easy to make money quickly and get rich quickly, that's their teaching, the heretical ulama group, the Balawi Bahar Riziq FPI 212 et al., like to cause trouble in Indonesia 😢
There is only one God, Allah the owner of kings the true king. And Muhammad is his messenger.
Iearn a bit about a place befor you go there and start to speek about it next time pls and next time your in a church keep the cursing in side yourself show some respect you wouldent do our say things like that in a mosque and Christian Egiptions are mostly Coptic orthodox not Catholic and you said a church in the middle East who would of thought or somthing to that effect it was a Christian country befor the muslim and arab invasion and there are Christians who still live in there countries do a bit of home work pls
I don't owe this institution correctness.
@@sealontour no it's a little thing called respect and you owe that institution everything it is becourse of it and its values that you injoy the freedoms you take for granted all western values are built apon the Christian faith and values system so like I said be for a little bit of research and home work befor you talk goe swear and course in a mosque you wouldn't deer and next time you in a so called Christian about good as you claim may be learn how they greet each other not how those who apress them greet each other
‘ Don’t owe’ !? An incredibly rude & antagonistic attitude. Childish & petulant. Stay home.
