The present paper aims at examining the role devoted to Islam in the 1923 Egyptian Constitution and argues that its original draft had far more ideological implications than the version that was ultimately octroyée by King Fuʾād I on 19 April 1923. The latter represented a retreat from the quite bold stances taken in the first draft, which was caused on one side by the complex relationship with Great Britain, and on the other by the pressures exerted by the king in shaping the constitutional text. A comparison between these two documents and the use of the available data on the discussions occurred during the constitutional debates (such as the contents of the memoirs and autobiographies of the most prominent nationalist leaders of the time) will show the several steps that led to the promulgation of this text and how it was progressively drained of ideological value and sharpness in favour of a major vagueness and neutrality that could meet the expectations of each involved party
