جرائم المساس بالأديان السماوية و المواجهة الجنائية بين حرية الاعتقاد و حرية التعبير

الملخص EN

The study dealt with images of crimes against religions, while the authorities in some countries, especially European ones, explain the impossibility of holding perpetrators accountable on the pretext that this comes within the framework of freedom of expression.

Therefore, it tried to clarify the line between freedom of belief and the practice of religious rites on the one hand, and freedom of expression on the other, and concluded This is one of the most complex problems faced by the protection of the revealed religions, in addition to the multiplicity of standards of Western countries in this regard, and the shortcomings in criminalizing some forms of prejudice to religions.

I recommended that the Egyptian legislator add the “crime of forcibly preventing the practice of religious rites” among the crimes against religion, and that work be done on concluding an international agreement to protect the revealed religions in a manner that guarantees freedom of belief and does not infringe on moderate freedom of expression.
