Over 200 people have been injured in clashes in Cairo
In Cairo, hundreds of protesters could be seen gathering outside the US embassy as clashes between police and demonstrators continued into a third day.
More than 220 people, including members of the security forces have been injured in the attacks, according to the Egyptian Health Ministry.
Egypt's governing Muslim Council described the film as "disgraceful" but issued a call to stop the violence.
In a translated statement, they said: "The peoples and governments of the Muslim world have every right to condemn, with all peaceful and legal means, this new violation and heinous attack, and to take appropriate action to deter repeats of such acts of barbaric aggression.
"While we reject and condemn the bloodshed and violent response to that abuse and the incredible tolerance certain countries show towards it, we cannot ignore the fact that these countries never made a move regarding the abuse until after the strong reaction seen across the Muslim world.
The protests appeared to be static in Cairo, although Sky News reported that missiles were being thrown by protesters closest to the embassy
