Abstract

The study aimed at identifying the role of e-Egyptian newspapers in raising awareness of public about the dangers of sectarian strife. This study is considered one of the descriptive studies that used the survey method by applying an electronic questionnaire to a sample of 957 items from the Egyptian public using the snowball technique from 20 November 2020 until the end of December 2020. Among the most prominent findings of the study:
-  The religious intolerance of a sect or religious sect ranked first among the causes of sectarian strife as seen by the respondents in the Egyptian electronic newspapers, followed in second place by the wrong understanding of religion, followed by the violation of religious sanctities and religious symbols in the third place, then insulting the Prophets in the eighth place, followed by exclusion of religious minorities from leadership positions ranked ninth, and civil marriage between Muslims and Christians came in last place.
- Al-Azhar Al-Sharif came first among governmental institutions that helped raise awareness of the dangers of sectarian strife as seen by the respondents in the Egyptian electronic newspapers, followed by the Egyptian Dar Al Iftaa, followed by the Egyptian Ministry of Endowments, then the Ministry of Interior in ninth place, followed by the Egyptian Parliament in the tenth rank, and the Egyptian Church came in the last place.
- Egyptian electronic newspapers have highly contributed in increasing the Egyptian public’s awareness of the dangers of sectarian strife as it issued a high level of awareness, followed by the level of medium awareness and the low level of awareness came in the last.
- There are no statistically significant differences between the responses of the sample members according to the variable of religion (Muslim-Christian) with regard to the effect of awareness of the dangers of sectarian strife in Egyptian electronic newspapers on them.
