I think this is a spitting spider in the genus Scytodes. There are at least 7 species in Egypt and I don’t know which one your spider is. The link describes spitting spiders in South Africa.

My little resident spitting spider never seemed to make a web. spent its life wandering the baseboard eatting roaches and other spiders.
