Influence of Shiism on the Fikr of Modern Political "Islamism"

[ZulFiqar]

Having benefited tremendously from the English language series of sites which I believe are authored by a brother named Abu Iyaad Amjad Rafiq. I am referring specifically to his particularly themed sites that refute www.Asharis.com (truly a masterpiece) and the fikr of Syed Qutb www.SayyidQutb.com www.Ikhwanis.com www.Takfiris.com www.IslamAgainstExtremism.com www.Kharijites.com www.theMadkhalis.com www.Aqidah.com www.Shia.bs etc.

He catalogues the unmistakeable influence of Tashayyu on the gradual development of the modern political “Islamist” movement going back to Jamal al-Din al-Afghani (who was actually an Iranian Shi’ite masquerading as an Afghani Sunni in order to have a broader outreach). Then we learn how Mawdudi criticised sayyidina Uthman^RA and he was the major influence on Syed Qutb in introducing to him and others the fikr of Hakamiya. And we see how the revolutionary regime of Iran considers Syed Qutb a shaheed and one of the intellectuals fathers of its own revolution. Likewise, the author of these very beneficial pieces goes all the way back in history and connects the dots for the readers regarding the interplay between the Khawarij, the Sabaiyya, and the Rawafid Shi’a, and how groups like the Ikhwan al-Muslimun exhibit characteristics of all these ancient sects plus the Batiniya due to its secrecy in its internal affairs.

You are mistaken! Actually, it is the opposite. MawduDi and Co influenced Khomeini and Co so they came up with Wilayet al-Faqih system the first of its kind in Shia history.

Plus your thread is breaking forum rules. No Ashari-Salafi debate. You are also comparing political groups with sects.

The thread will be locked.
