Doesn’t that mean that the Jewish religion predates Islam in Egypt by 300 years?

Jews predate Muslims in Egypt by at least 2000 years.
Ok, leave the Bible aside, it’s known that the population of Alexandria was very Jewish in Ptolemaic times, they being brought there by Ptolemy the Great, about 300BC. So make it 1000 years of continuous residence as reliably attested.

Islam began the 600s AD. In this instance the stone carving would predate Islam by around 900 years. But Jews/Hebrews were likely in Egypt well before that.
