Abstract | ||||
Mar Mina was considered one of the most important saints not only in Egypt but also in the whole world, the paper discussed briefly his autobiography and how he defended his faith (Christianity), as his body was protected with the God. He carried many titles according to his miracles which the majority of his people were as witnesses on them. His church was rebuilt during the reign of Pope Kiroles VI, as he left a will mentioned his wish to be buried beside the great saint. There is another church carried his name in Cairo at Foum el Khalig, as the Christ appeared one day in a vision dream to one of the priests and ordered that the body of saint Mina must be transferred from the monastery of Mariout at Alexandria and to be buried in the church at Foum el Khalig, so the mission was completed and the body remains was put in the church. | ||||
