You can send a certified copy of your passport but everything else needs to be original. It's perfectly normal to send documents (including passports) overseas for visa applications. Use a courier if you are concerned about loosing them.
This is a general visit visa so what exactly are you providing? What level of support does he actually need from you other than to say he can stay with you? If he can't finance his own trip it's fine for you to pay for it but by doing so, and without any economic means of his own, it will be very difficult for him to be granted a visa (from Eqypt, in particular!)
