Why do people in Egypt now believe in Allah instead of their Egyptian Gods?
In: Other
The Arabs conquered Egypt between 639-642 AD. However, before that there were Christian and Jewish Egyptians. Most were converted during the conquest, however some Coptic Christians and Jews did not.
However, there may be fringe Cults that worship the Egyptian gods just like there are cults that worship the Greek pantheon post Christinization of Greece.
It is fair to assume with the rise of Paganism there is “new” cults surrounding the Egyptian gods, but they are underground due to fear of persecution.
