I have heard alot of good things about the Al-Azhar University, I even have a friend who has gone to study there. However, I have heard some kinda funny things coming out of there when it comes to the Hijab issue. Apart from this issue, the imam at the time (I think it was tantawi but not sure if it was Muhammad Sayyed), said that women in france would be expempt from wearing the hijab out of "Necessity".
Allah alone knows.
