The author describes the curricula of the first three grades of primary education in Egypt. Every textbook has a small number of short Qur´anic chapters or verses. The explanation of these short chapters and verses are very superficial. There are topics that do not relate to the verses or the very short chapters pupils study. The textbooks say that a Muslim should be a patriot. The authors of these textbooks ignore the fact that the Egyptian schools contain both Muslim and Christian pupils who discuss the topics they study.
