A persecution arose in the later days of Al-Sultan Hassan Al-Nasser Nasser Hassan Ben Mohamed (first time, 1347-1351 AD) - السلطان حسن. The Spaniards had requested the reopening of the Melkite churches (which were closed at the time) and requested the release of a Spanish prisoner. After the Sultan had agreed to the requests, he came back and demanded a large ransom for the prisoner, and Spain rejected the request. A dispute arose. Somehow, the Copts bore the afflictions of this dispute, and a persecution ensued. This persecution was cut short by the death of Al-Sultan Hassan Al-Nasser in 1351 AD. He was succeeded by his son the second good and did not carry the attributes of his name anything. It was strange that, amid this, the persecution was clear. They arrested a Coptic man who came from the countryside to Cairo. He called on his brothers to keep faith, and rebuked the men and tortured him for a week. Then they cut off his head and burned his body on the road. The non-Copts have suffered from plague and Copts have suffered persecution and plague.
