The movie lampooning the Prophet is being produced by some expatriate Christian Copts in the US.
On Sunday, Egyptian Grand Mufti Ali Gomaa denounced "the actions undertaken by some extremist Copts who made a film offensive to the Prophet."
He said the offence "affects millions of Muslims around the world" and that the making of such a film could not be justified on the basis of freedom of expression.
"The attack on religious sanctities does not fall under this freedom," said Gomaa.
The offensive film coincides with a symbolic "trial" of the Prophet by anti-Islam pastor Terry Jones, who burnt the Noble Qur'an in 2010, in Florida on Tuesday.
Plot to DivideCopts also took part in the protest against the offensive movie of the Prophet.
"I am here because I am Egyptian and reject anything that insults Islam or anything that sparks division in Egypt," Rafiq Farouk, 38, told Reuters.
The abusive movie has already drawn condemnation from Egypt's Coptic Orthodox Church.
The church said in a statement that some Copts living abroad financed "the production of a film insulting Prophet Mohammad".
About a 10th of Egypt's 83 million people are Christians.
