They can say one among the untouchables. There are nearly 50,000 people about their population, they are almost entirely embraced the Christian faith, and they really lived in misery. In Cairo, for one reason or another, the Muslims did not work as garbage collectors. Maybe something to do with their religious beliefs, or perhaps because the majority population, they just refuse to do such a disgusting job. Whatever the reason, the job fell to the Christians.
Locations with a population of 50,000 people smelled the stench is so remarkable because it resulted from the collection of garbage from all over the city, the garbage piled together and exposed to hot sun in scorching temperatures. But the people there is a majority Christian settlers complete their work, mostly with smiles on their faces.
In this cave there is a church, an old Coptic Christian church with a very interesting history. The name of this Church is the Church of El Kharaz Samaan, also known as the Church of St. Zaraa Ibram Ibn El Soriany, Mount Moqattam, Cairo, Egypt. Cave church is composed of three sets of caves. The largest of these is said to accommodate 10,000 people, who in the midst of a capacity of about 2,000 people and the smallest about 200 people.
The only other aspect of the real history of Mount Moqattam this is the early Christian legend, upon which a large monastery was built. Tradition says that the holy men who are now known by the name of Simon the Tanner lived in the tenth century, was miraculously move mountains. In the Christian scriptures there is a verse that says "If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, then you can move mountains".
The story is the opinion of the time there is a debate between the Pope Abram and a Jew named Jacob Ibn Killis, in his debate Pope Abram as irrefutable argument and she have the upper hand in the debate discussions. Then Ibn Killis want to reply by quoting as mentioned above, to prove that his religion is true. Khalifah saw this great opportunity as well to remove the destructive mountain views. At the same time, if Christianity proved unable to perform this miracle, it will be a proof that Christianity is wrong.
Then, after three days of prayer and fasting by people all over the land of Egypt, Simon was chosen to move Mount Moqattam. Then it is said that a great earthquake occurs and the sweep of the mountain. Along the mountain also formed a cavern where a large cave that is currently used as a local Christian worship. Since events can move mountains, the figure of Simon disappeared and was never found. On both sides of this event is to be friendly.
