What is the symbol for Christmas in Egypt?

Answer 1

In Egypt, Christmas is celebrated by the Coptic rites on January 6. Prior to Christmas, a 43 day fast, in which only non-animal foods are consumed, is observed. During the last thirty days of the fast, joy hymns are sung. Homes are decorated in the traditional western ways.

Answer 2

Although Egypt is a Muslim country, it does have a substantial minority of Christians, known as Coptic Christians, who make up roughly 10% of the Egyptian population, and who, naturally, celebrate Christmas, as Christians normally do.
