Michael I (orKhaʾil I) was the 46thCoptic Pope and Patriarch of Alexandria from 743 to 767.

BishopMoses of Awsim was instrumental in arranging the election of Michael as patriarch in a compromise between northern and southern factions.[1]

In 748, when Pope Michael was thrown into prison byAbd al-Malik ibn Marwan ibn Musa ibn Nusayr,King Kyriakos ofMakuria marched north intoEgypt at the head of an army said to number 100,000 men to free thePope of Alexandria. Once the Makurian army reached Egypt, the Pope was released from prison.[2]

In 749, the governor of Egypt,Hawthara ibn Suhayl, held Michael hostage inRosetta in an effort to force therebelling Bashmurites to surrender. They instead sacked the city.[3]

Pope Michael opposed the enthroning of the BishopIsaac as aSyriac Orthodox Patriarch of Antioch after the death ofIwannis I because he was already thebishop of the eparchy of Harran.[4]
