Revelation 17:1-3,16-18 – And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: [2] With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. [3] So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. [16] And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. [17] For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled. [18] And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.
Revelation 18:4-8 – And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. [5] For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities. [6] Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double. [7] How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow. [8] Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.

Special Dispatch No. 5293
In Advance Of Orthodox Easter In Egypt, Muslim Brotherhood And Salafis Issue Fatwas Forbidding Greeting Copts On Their Holidays
In advance of Orthodox Easter, which will be celebrated by Egypt’s Copts in early May 2013, fatwas have been issued by a Muslim Brotherhood (MB) official and by officials in Egypt’s Salafi stream forbidding Muslims from greeting Christians on their religious holidays. It should be mentioned that these fatwas are a departure from the practice of past MB leaders, who sent greeting cards to the Patriarch and Coptic figures on their holidays, including Easter, and dispatched representatives to greet Copts in churches.

Fatwas Forbidding Wishing Christians Well On Their Holidays
Member of MB General Guide’s Office: Greet Christians Only on Christmas, Not Easter
In late April 2013, ‘Abd Al-Rahman Al-Barr, a member of the MB general guide’s office, who is often referred to as the movement’s mufti, issued a fatwa forbidding Muslims from greeting Christians on their religious holidays. Al-Barr told the Egyptian daily Al-Yawm Al-Sabi’ on April 28, 2013 that according to the shari’a, Copts must not be greeted for religious ceremonies that contravene the principles of the Muslim faith, and stressed that it is forbidden to greet Copts on the upcoming Easter. He added that it is permitted to greet Copts on everyday occasions, but not religious occasions.
Al-Barr stressed that Easter is contrary to the Muslim faith in the sense that “Jesus did not die and was not crucified, but rather Allah gave him protection from the Jews and raised [Jesus] up to Him… which is why we do not greet anyone for something we strongly believe is wrong. This does not contradict the right of our partners in the homeland to believe what they want or do what they want…” He added that it is permitted to greet Christians on Christmas, or for Muslims to greet non-Muslims with the commonly expressed “May you have a good year.”

Salafi Front Spokesman: A Muslim Man Married To A Christian Woman Cannot Greet His Wife
The Salafi Front, a Salafi stream known to be close to the MB, also ruled that it is forbidden to greet the Copts on their religious holidays, and even called Muslims who go to churches to greet the Copts on their holidays “sinners.” The Salafi Front’s ruling was harsher and more sweeping; in contrast to the MB, the Salafi Front argued that the ban on greeting Copts applied also to Christmas.
Salafi Front political bureau member Khaled Al-Masri told the Egyptian daily Al-Yawm Al-Sabi’ on April 28, 2013 that a distinction should be made between greetings on religious holidays and greetings on social occasions: “Greeting Copts on their religious holidays such as Christmas and Easter is forbidden by the shari’a, and there is a religious consensus on this… because greeting on these holidays means you recognize holidays you do not believe in, so on what basis do you greet them?” He added: “On social occasions, whether in times of joy like weddings or times of grief like the death of a loved one, it is permitted to comfort and greet them.”
Salafi Front spokesman Dr. Hisham Kamal told Egypt’s Al-Tahrir TV that even a Muslim married to a Christian or Jewish woman cannot greet his wife on her holidays, and that it is even permissible for him to prevent her from participating in these holidays.

Those Who Today Ban Greeting Copts Will Tomorrow Call For Killing Them
Egyptian author and playwright Nasser Iraq wrote that if the extremists today forbid greeting Copts on their holidays, tomorrow they might call for killing them: “Those extremists have forgotten that the Koran says ‘We have honored the children of Adam [Koran 17:70].’ In other words, Allah the Almighty bestowed honor upon man from the start, regardless of religion, gender, or color. Yet now these extremists treat the Copts disrespectfully, by ordering the masses not to greet them on their holidays – as if they weren’t human beings. I have no doubt that these backward calls, at this particular time, are meant to keep Egypt a weak, impoverished, and unhealthy country that wastes its energy on pointless argument…
“Those who bear hatred for the human race and the homeland are now telling people not to greet Copts on their holidays. Tomorrow they will call to kill them.
“[I call on] the educators and cultured people [in our society], and the tolerant sheikhs of Al-Azhar, to be vigilant and careful. [And I tell] my Coptic friend: Do not to be sad or embittered. May you have a good year.” These Fatwas Will Lead Egypt To Perdition
Sa’id Al-Shahat, a columnist for the Egyptian daily Al-Yawm Al-Sabi’, wrote: “A Christian [Egyptian] soldier or officer serving his country – how will he feel [seeing] these bizarre and peculiar fatwas, which focus on minute details of Islam rather than its tolerant essence? How can we ask a Christian to be a productive worker [when he sees] these bizarre fatwas that emphasize differences [among the citizens of Egypt]…
“These people are urging us to abandon the Islamic ship of wasatiyya [middle way] and tolerance, and move to the ship of extremism, [by] treating Christians like second-class citizens.
“These bizarre fatwas lay the foundation for tearing Egypt to pieces and leading it to perdition…”
