Summary Still in Tripoli, Jan compares modern loudspeaker prayer call to the old city's simple mosque with imam and muezzin. He crosses the Egyptian border to Alexandria, the now rather sleepy pre-Arab metropolis. The modern 'equivalent' of the once world-champion Pharos library is understocked and poorly visited. Next he passes to capital Cairo, where he meet the Muslim Brotherhood's leader and discusses its precarious position under the Mubarraq regime and remains suspicious about its definition of freedom and tolerant sharia. He ignores consistent assurances even from women concerning their unequal status.
