Stop grieving over Farouk's rule I did not like the rule of King Farouk, and I regret his days, because during his reign we lost Palestine, nor did I like the rule of Abdel Nasser, because during his reign we lost Sudan and Sinai. The two men who ruled Egypt that I liked the most were Saladin and Qutuz. They were the ones who raised the banner of jihad and liberated the land. Egypt was one of the greatest countries. I wish we would learn how we were during their era so that we know how to wake up from our coma.
