Résumé

All muslim societies, from Morocco to Indonesia, are confronted with the problem of conciliation between the "permanence" taught by Islam and "changes" imposed by modernisation, arousing conflicts, in the name of Islam, among the different factions of muslim society. This article deals with the phenomenon (of the modernisation of the Muslim World) in a field of habitat (in the larger sense, encompassing all the human creations, which start from his fundamental need, to inhabit, and which appear in various scales, from the house to the city). The studied case is the city of Ismailia, founded in 1862 and managed by the Suez Canal Company until it was nationalised in 1956, appropriated and managed afterward by the Egyptian Government up to the present day. How do the Egyptians (understood as: Orientals, Arabs, Muslims, Traditionals/Medievals) appropriate and develop the habitat conceived and formed by the French (understood as: Occidentals, Europeans, Christians, Moderns), that is the question.
