| Who
was Hasan Al-Banna?
Hasan
al-Banna (1906-1949) was a Sufi
thinker and political activist, and the founder of al-Ikhwan
al-Muslimun (The Muslim Brotherhood).
Hasan
Al-Banna himself narrates that he used to visit the graves
and shrines on a weekly basis at which greater acts of polytheism
were being performed. In his book Muthakkiraatud-Da'wah,
Al-Banna disclosed his fascination with Sufism,
how he would accompany the Hasafiya Sufi
order and how he would spend long periods of time at the shrines
in Diminhoor.
Note:
Hasan al-Banna, Abu
Alaa Maududi, Sayyid
Qutb and all of their followers are clearly not "Wahhabis".
