Biography

Zaghloul Al Naggar is an Egyptian geologist and Muslim scholar, born in 1933 in a conservative environment. His father was an educationalist, and moved to Cairo in the mid-1940s where the family witnessed the brutality of the British occupation. "On weekends we saw the drunken British troops drag and punch innocent civilians, molest women and foment trouble.", he said. Zaghloul participated in the anti-British demonstrations where two of his fellow activists, Shahin and Ahmed Al-Mineisi, were killed. 

Al Naggar earned a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Cairo in 1955, and a PhD in Geology from the University of Wales in the United Kingdom in 1963, his thesis was entitled “Geology and stratigraphic palaeontology of the Esna-Idfu Region, Nile Valley, Egypt, U.A.R.”.

Al Naggar was jailed for nine months due to his political activism and beliefs during his life as a student and was considered a threat to the secular ruling regime in Egypt at the time. After being released, he was banned from teaching due to accusations of being a member of the Muslim Brotherhood association. Al Naggar was exiled from Egypt in early 1960s and was able to return back to his country in 1970.

Evidence of Hate Speech/Incitement:

April 2021: Al Naggar appeared on Al Jazeera TV talking about the covid-19 pandemic.

April 2021: In the same interview, he stated that "Many people attacked Bill Gates, because he is one of the leaders of this campaign. He claims that only wealthy people are entitled to live on this planet and that African and Asian nations must be annihilated, because they are non-productive nations that do not contribute anything to modern civilization."

September 2020: When interviewed on Channel 9 (Turkey), Zaghloul said that “a bunch of extremist Jews” in Sweden are annoyed by the rapid spread of Islam in Europe because they understand how this can endanger their “satanic schemes” so they are trying to distort this religion and attack some Islamic voices.

In December 2017, Al Naggar published on his YouTube channel an excerpt from a show broadcast on Iqraa TV where he said that Jews are liars and the traitors of the whole humanity.

When the journalist asked him if the genes are responsible for that traits in Jews, he denied that and said that just like homosexuality, it does not have to do with genes, that they said that to avoid the truth and it is only due to the nature of humans and their free will who choose to do good or bad.
