Best Answer

They are similar to the laws of many other Middle Eastern countries.

Briefly:

The Egyptian judicial system includes religious and secular courts.

The Egyptian Civil Code dates from 1949. Like other Middle Eastern countries, the code follows the Napoleonic civil law model (written codes) and focuses on regulation of business.

In the absence of applicable law the judge follows custom and, failing to find a resolution by custom, follows Islamic law.

Family Law and inheritance are generally handled by the parties' religion.

Criminal law is based on European models modified by Islamic social patterns. It's complicated.
