On October 6, 1981, former President Sadat was assassinated in the memory of the victory of October 1973. Anwar Sadat is indeed one of the most controversial presidents in Egypt. His life and death involved a great deal of ambiguity and contradiction. His assassination operation was very successful that you may think international organizations were behind his death. His policies moved Egypt from socialism to capitalism. He also moved Egypt from subordination of the Soviet Union to the absolute loyalty to America.

January 25 will remain milestone and a major turning point in the history of Egypt, even if many people refuse to name it a revolution and even a conspiracy. Millions of Egyptian people demonstrated in the streets proving the popularity and credibility of the revolution. It has great effect on all levels including religion that it led to the end of the religious era in Egypt, where religion dominated all aspects of Egyptian life since the mid-seventies. President Sadat encouraged the religious currents in Egypt aiming to eliminate the leftist, communists and Nasserites, pleasing to the American party.
