Hi, can anyone give advise on what generally should be written in this kind of contract. Does anyone know if an Egyptian after marrying a European is also still allowed to marry an Egyptian woman also ? Seems some confusion over this subject.

There is nothing to stop an Egyptian man marrying a second time whether he marries a European or an Egyptian woman. The law requires if he takes a second wife that the first wife must be informed.
You may wish to include in your marriage contract the right to divorce him ( and a sum to be paid to you on divorce) if he takes a second wife but there is nothing you can do to actually stop him.
My understanding is you can put whatever you like in the marriage contract providing both parties agree to it and it is not in contravention of any laws.
