    Iran and Egypt has not full diplomatic relation but they have diplomatic offices in their capitals.

    Ask your friend to go to the following address or just give a call. In some cases, Egyptian Interest Section in Tehran issue visa for Iranians. Hopefully, Iranian side also do the same!

    12 Rifaa St.

    Dokki, Giza

    Egypt

    Phone:

    +20-2-3486492

    For what I know about similar situations: people have to go to a country nearby with an Iranian embassy to apply for visa. If he really is desperate to come to Iran, it might be worth thinking about it. I just don't know how long the application period will take. He should call them up first for more information.

    He does have to make sure that he gets an invitation letter from somebody living in Iran (could be you) with an address where he will stay in Iran.

    I have some acquaintances in Iran that are in a metal band. They are constantly harassed by some sort of morals police.
