Sabri also took objection to the concert happening during the first ten days of the Islamic month of Dhu al-Hijjah, considered to be some of the most sacred in the lunar year.
Lopez also faced controversy in Egypt for appearing in concert in Israel.
Some fans called for the cancellation of her El Alamein show after J-Lo arrived in Tel Aviv and said on social media: “The motherland Israel!!! First time here. I’m in love!”
BDS Egypt said in a statement last week that the American singer had shown “clear support for the state of occupation and its racist policies towards Palestinians”.
“This concert will take place after her previous concert in occupied Palestine days ago, which she insisted on carrying out despite many calls to boycott Israel and cancel the concert,” the group said.
