Coptic Solidarity
Art has a largely negative impact on human morality. So says Sheikh Ahmed al-Tayeb, the grand imam of Egypt's Al Azhar madrassa and arguably the "most influential Muslim in the world."
In a recent televised interview, Tayeb was asked "To what degree does art influence the morals of the youth." The sheikh responded that art--presumably all forms and expressions of art, as no particular form was specified--has a 90 percent influence rate on the morality of the youth; and all of it is bad.
