The Christian Post reports that the fiancée of Said Mansour Rezk Abdelrazek, an Egyptian man who left Islam for Jesus, is begging the U.S. and the Netherlands to step in before Egypt executes him.
The case
He was arrested in Cairo in July 2025 after he tried to get his ID papers to list his Christian faith. Prosecutors are asking for the “maximum penalty,” death or 25 years, on charges including membership of a terrorist group and contempt for Islam. His lawyer says the group doesn’t even exist and the real charge is refusing to renounce Jesus. The defense argues on Dec. 8.
His fiancée, Sophia, wants Washington to tie its roughly $1.5 billion in yearly aid to his release. She says 180 or more Christians are held on similar charges.
Let’s pray
Pray for Said to be strengthened by the Spirit, for favor with the judges, and for his release. “Remember those in prison as if you were together with them in prison” (Hebrews 13:3). I wrote about Sherif earlier, another Egyptian believer behind bars. Keep them both before the Lord.
God Bless, and Happy hacking!
