For the people that the priests of the Copts wear black
saddened to enter the Arabs of Egypt knowing that the priests in most countries wearing black also say some but sad for the sins of the people and some say the color of black grouper and that the priest died from the world
The Coptic priests wear the white color at the time of prayer in the church, as the Bible says, "Make holy garments to Aaron your brother for glory and glory" (Exodus 28: 2)
We have evidence that the priests and monks wore white in their normal lives as we see in the history of the Council of Nicea and in the stories of the early monks, but the wear of black color began in later times, probably back to the eleventh century AD when the governor ordered the order The Fatimid God to wear the Copts spare clothes with the tightening of the girdle on the center and the suspension of crosses in the neck and then develop the matter and prevent crosses silver and gold and make them of wood and the Copts in blue and turbans be blue or black and some attributed that the black color Abbasids enemies of the Fatimids
In the reign of Pope Johannes IV and his number 96 in the Patriarchs, we see that Sultan Murad Al Othmani stressed that the Copts wear black color as a distinction for them from the Muslims and that was in the sixteenth century under the reign of the governor Hassan Pasha Al-Khadem,
The Copts returned to their normal clothes, and the priests and monks were still wearing black.

The story of Saint Anba Sarabamoun Abu Tarhah In the 19th century, some priests were wearing dark blue clothes, most famous of them were Abba Makarios, Bishop of Qena and Paula Paul. From this we understand that the black color gradually began to prevail and replaced the other colors.
