Timurids. They have it all.
EDIT: ohh between Egypt and Turkey ? Hard call, Egypt has Mamluks. I've only played with Turks though, so can't really offer anything much of substance, except I LOVE playing the Turks.

The Turks are good all-around, infantry and cavalry-wise. The Egyptians have Mamluks, which are good troops, but Turks have sipahis which IMO is just as good anyway. Haven't really played Egyptians, only fought them, but I'd go with Turks just because they're so well-rounded. Great starting area as well.
Turks IMO. They have cooler units. Although Timurids are also cool.
EGYPT!!!!!!(because i love the colour, and yes i can be that superficial).

Turks are stronger than the Egyptian pyramid-huggers.
But Moors are the most bestest Muslim faction.
I would have to say the turks because of the JHI, ability to produce top quality troops from cities, and jannisary musketeers which owns all. On top of this, you start off in an excellent position to expand with multiple rebel cities to the south and a chance to do a quick blitz to nab nionae and constantinople effectively crippling the Byzantines. Finally, the Mongols and the Timurids spawn near your empire letting you fight out some huge and awesome battles

Egypt if you want to win pretty easily, despite the good fights with the invading Mongols and Timiruds.
Turks if you like more challenge and fun.
Egypt if you like having armies that completely outclass enemies in the early moves and don't mind having so-so units later.
Turks if you love late period power units.
Turks are very stronger![]()
I'm gunna have to go with Egypt, better early armies, but in the late game, Royal Mamluks beat all other cavalry head on, and the Hashashin can hack thier way through just about everything, just back them up with armor piercing ranged units kurds/gunners and you've got an (almost) unstoppable army. Expensive as all hell though...
ick
Erm........since they are classed as Moslem in M2TW, the Mongols
........Orda
