"Identity politics" is among the prominent topics of novel sociology. In fact, the instances of identity politics include the politicization of ethnic, cultural, linguistic, and religious identities as well as the political activity and participation of ethnoreligious groups to pursue their desires, citizenship rights, and self-determination. The Middle East has emerged as the major focal point for terrorism and ethno-religious conflicts in recent decades. Egypt was among the first Arab states to undergo political and social changes following the onset of successive unrest and political movements in Arab states in 2011. Hence, the main research question is as follows: “What are the most important sociological and domestic factors affecting the politicization of ethnic and religious identities in post-Arab Spring Egypt?” To address this questions, a descriptive-analytical method was employed. According to the findings, the causes of ethnic and religious identity politicization in Egypt are directly related to the “political stability” of this African country. Due to a relatively strong civil society, Egypt managed to go through the transition stage and make progress in various indicators such as political stability, plurality of parties, unemployment rate, inflation rate, and poverty rate. Nevertheless, the lack of consensus on national identity, disruption in the stable transfer of power, and the deep and broad scope of the army's activities still remain the obstacles to successful political stability in Egypt.
