The History and Legacy of Ikhwanul Muslimin (Muslim Brotherhood)
The most sophisticated approach to the ideology of Pan-Islam, in the new situation of Nationalism-bound Egypt of the 1920s and 1930s, was developed by Hassan al-Banna, the founder, in 1929 and general guide of The Muslim Brethren/Brotherhood (Ikhwanul Muslimin). The Ikhwanul Muslimin Virtue of Upholding Ties of Kinship, Enjoining Good Manners, and Joining of the Ties of Kinship by treating all of its members and supporters as kin is reflective of an authentic hadith narrated by Prophet Muhammad's (p.b.u.h.) wife, A'isha r.a. A'isha r.a. reported Allah's Messenger (p.b.u.h.) as saying: The tie of kinship is suspended to the Throne and says: He who unites me Allah would unite him and he who severed me Allah would sever him. [Sahih Muslim 2555] I would leave it to the reader to comprehend and appreciate the Ikhwanul Muslimin/Muslim Brotherhood. I continuously hold the organisation in high esteem.
The Special Apparatus of the Muslim Brotherhood Inception, Objectives and Evolution
This study addresses the issue of violence as it pertains to the Muslim Brotherhood and, more specifically, the Brotherhood’s so-called Special Apparatus. Despite the Brotherhood’s claim to be nothing but a religious and social advocacy movement, the formation of the Special Apparatus under the supervision of the Brotherhood’s First Guide has been seen as evidence of the Group’s institutionalization of violence as a means of ensuring achievement of its goal of coming to power and establishing the “Islamic State” and, beyond this, offering what the Brotherhood’s founder Hasan al-Banna referred to as “the exemplary model for the world.” The Muslim Brotherhood’s ideology has...
Mysticism and Politics
This volume deals with Sayyid Quṭb's commentary, compared to ‘Abduh's and Riḍā's 'Tafsīr al-Manār', discussing his method of reading the Qur’ān, elements of his dogmatic theology, of his faith and spirituality and of the Muslim practices.The book then evaluates his doctrine concerning Judaism and Christianity, the status of their followers in the ideal Islamic society to be reinstated, Muslim family and Islamic emancipation of women. It evaluates which Islamic State will be able to accomplish and lead this Qur’ānic society, and what will be its 'dynamic Law' and the new economic order and social justice. The book finally looks at the essential role the permanent war-for-God should have in the face of new worldwide anti-Islamic paganism, and it concludes with extremism (of Quṭb and, more, of the 'Quṭbists') and with the promising muslim thinking in resistance to it. The large Selection of texts of 'Fī ẓilāl...', translated by W. Shepard, is very valuable.

The New Muslim Brotherhood in the West
In both Europe and North America, organizations tracing their origins back to the Muslim Brotherhood and other Islamist movements have rapidly evolved into multifunctional, richly funded organizations. They now compete to become the major representatives of Western Muslim communities and government interlocutors. Some analysts and policy makers see these organizations as positive forces encouraging integration. Others treat them as modern-day Trojan horses that feign moderation while radicalizing Western Muslims. Lorenzo Vidino brokers a third and more informed view. Having completed more than a decade of research on political Islam in the West, Vidino is keenly qualified to analyze a moveme...
