Best Answer

Most Egyptian Christians belong to the Coptic Orthodox Church and they have some very unique traditions for Christmas.

Christmas Day isn't celebrated on the 25th December but on 7th January

(like in Ethiopia and by some Orthodox Christians in Russia and Serbia).

The Coptic month leading to Christmas is called Kiahk.

Most Christians in Egypt speak Arabic, so the term used is 3id al-Milaad (عيد الميلاد).
