  This seems like it would be a more appropriate question for Law.

IMHO based on the question, I suspect you are concerned that you will be held against your will in Egypt. If this is true, then there are other higher priority questions that should be posed:

• Is there law / practice / precedent that could cause detainment?


• Does the male relative have the positional authority to detain (policeman etc.)


• Is the benefit of a visit worth the risk?


• What alternatives are available to visit: can you meet family in another country?


• What risk mitigation can be engaged to prevent detainment?

I am sure that there are other good questions that I have not listed. I hope this helps to make a good decision and avoid a bad outcome.
