A study of Sayyid Qutb's influence on contemporary Islamic movements

In recent decades, the Muslim world has frequently been in world news headlines. Sayyid Qutb is one of the characters who played a significant role in the events in that part of the world. By appealing to the theoretical framework of Thomas Spragens for crisis, this article struggles to explain why and how Sayyid Qutb had such an influence on the Islamists. His influence is due to several social factors rather than his distinguished personality or high scientific level. This article studies the causes of Sayyid Qutb's impact on contemporary political Islamist movements. The lack of efficient ideology at his time, the inefficiency of Muslim Brothers' literature, the suggestion of new concepts about ​​Islamic society and government, the prescription of the uprising against Sunni ruler by Qutb, the historical conditions of Egyptian society, the execution of Sayyid Qutb, all together created an atmosphere in which the excited addressee in Egypt and soon in other Arab and Muslim countries saw the solution to their problems in achieving the ideal society that Sayyid Qutb drew. In this regard, the well-known book of Qutb, "Ma'alim fi Al-Tariq" (Milestones), written with extraordinary passion and zeal, became the manifesto of Islamist movements in Egypt and later affected Islamic movements elsewhere.
