ΔΙΟΙΚΗΤΙΚΗ ΟΡΓΑΝΩΣΗ ΤΗΣ ΑΙΓΥΠΤΟΥ ΜΕΤΑ ΤΗΝ ΑΡΑΒΙΚΗ ΚΑΤΑΚΤΗΣΗ. ΟΜΟΙΟΤΗΤΕΣ ΚΑΙ ΔΙΑΦΟΡΕΣ ΑΠΟ ΤΟ ΒΥΖΑΝΤΙΝΟ ΠΡΟΤΥΠΟ

THE PROBLEM OF THE ARAB ADMINISTRATION OF EGYPT DURING THE FIRST CENTURY AFTER THE ARAB CONQUEST OF EGYPT REMAINS UNSOLVED, BECAUSE OF THE DIFFICULTIES OF MAKING FULL USE OF ARABIC SOURCES IN COMBINATION WITH THE PAPYRI AND OTHER SOURCES, BECAUSE OF THE INCORRECT UNDERSTANDING OF THE ARAB HISTORIOGRAPHY AND INTENTION OF THE ARAB ISLAMIC HISTORIANS BY THE WESTERN RESEARCH WORKERS. IT IS CLEAR THAT, IN THE FIRST YEARS OF THE ARAB ADMINISTRATION, THE USE OF: GREEK AND COPTIC LANGUAGES, BYZANTINE TERMINOLOGY, TITLES, CHRISTIAN SYMBOLS (CROSS), IS DUE TO USING THE BYZANTINE TYPE (FORMULA) IN THE ADMINISTRATIVE CORRESPONDENCE SINCE THE ARABIC LANGUAGE WAS NOT GENERAL LANGUAGE AND THE PERIOD WAS GREEK SPEAKING AS WELL AS BILINGUAL. THE STAFF OF THE ARAB ADMINISTRATIVE MACHINERY WAS FORMED BY GREEKS AND COPTS WHO WERE KEPT IN THESE POSITIONS FROM THE PREVIOUS BYZANTINE ADMINISTRATIVE MACHINERY. CONTRARY TO THE KEEPING OPINIONS TILL NOW, IT HAS BEEN SHOWN THAT THE BYZANTINE ADMINISTRATIVE SYSTEM DISCONTINUED TO EXIST SOON AFTER THE ARAB CONQUEST (FROM THE MOMENT THAT THE NEW CAPITAL WAS TRANSFERREDTO FOSSATON)! THE ARAB ADMINISTRATIVE MACHINERY CORRESPONDS TO THE NEEDS OF ISLAM AND THE NEEDS OF WARS. THE USE OF BYZANTINE TITLES IS POWERLESS SINCE IT DOES NOT CORRESPOND TO ITS ADMINISTRATIVE POSITION. THAT IS TO SAY THEIR USE WAS ONLY AS HONORED TITLES FROM THE LOWER STAFF, AS A SIGN OF RESPECT, FEAR, AND FLATTERY, TO THE POWERFULL LANDLORDS OF THAT TIME. THE ARAB ADMINISTRATIVE SYSTEMWAS EXTREME CENTRALIZED AND DID NOT ALLOW ANY OTHER POWER BESIDES ECONOMIC ONES WITHIN LIMITED SCALE.
