About the author
Sayyid Qutb
163 books2,116 followersSayyid Ibrahim Husayn Shadhili Qutb (Arabic: سيد قطب) was an Egyptian political theorist and revolutionary who was a leading member of the Muslim Brotherhood.
As the author of 24 published books, with around 30 unpublished for different reasons (mainly destruction by the state), and at least 581 articles, including novels, literary arts critique and works on education, Qutb is best known in the Muslim world for his work on what he believed to be the social and political role of Islam, particularly in his books Social Justice and Ma'alim fi al-Tariq (Milestones). His magnum opus, Fi Zilal al-Qur'an (In the Shade of the Qur'an), is a 30-volume commentary on the Quran. Even though most of his observations and criticism were leveled at the Muslim world, Qutb also intensely disapproved of the society and culture of the United States, which he saw as materialistic, and obsessed with violence and sexual pleasures. He advocated violent, offensive jihad.
During most of his life, Qutb's inner circle mainly consisted of influential politicians, intellectuals, poets and literary figures, both of his age and of the preceding generation. By the mid-1940s, many of his writings were included in the curricula of schools, colleges and universities. In 1966, he was convicted of plotting the assassination of Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser and was executed by hanging.
Qutb has been described by followers as a great thinker and martyr for Islam, while many Western observers (and some Muslims) see him as a key originator of Islamist ideology, and an inspiration for violent Islamist groups such as al-Qaeda. Qutb is widely regarded as one of the most leading Islamist ideologues of the twentieth century. Strengthened by his status as a martyr, Qutb's ideas on Jahiliyya (pre-Islamic Arabia) and his close linking of implementation of sharia (Islamic Law) with Tawhid (Islamic monotheism) has highly influenced contemporary Islamist and Jihadist movements. Today, his supporters are identified by their opponents as "Qutbists" or "Qutbi".

اخر ما كتب سيد قطب رحمه الله قبل سجنه لدرجة ان اخر فصلين من الكتاب لم يكملهما ،،،و لذلك سيد قطب آثر أسلوب عرض مجموعة من النصوص القرآنية الكريمة مع شرح بسيط و اعتمد حسب قوله ان القارئ يستخلص المعاني و العبر بذاته اي كان دور الشيخ سيد فقط جامع للنصوص و للأسف أحسن الظن بالقارئ جداً و لم يدرى ان شفافية سيد و روح سيد و تجربة و سيد صاحب الظلال ليست موجودة للقارئ
فلذلك كان الكتاب نوعا ما مملا و لا يحمل اي شيء بالنسبة لي و نوعا ما هذا شيء محزن و تزداد حزنا عندما تبدا الأفكار بتكرار نفسها،،،،
للأسف لم استمتع بهذا الكتاب،،،
رحمة الله على الامام الشهيد سيد قطب،،،

الكتاب هذا ... أول كتاب شعرت أمامه بالحاجه إلى حفظه ومذاكرته أكثر من مره
هو من الكتب الأمهات ...التي تبني قلب الإنسان وروحه على أساس العقيده والإسلام بعيدا عن عبث العلمانيات والجاهليات
كتاب أدعي أنه بصورته هذه لا غنى لأي مسلم عنه أو ما يحقق محتواه من كتب إخرى
الحمدلله الذي هدانا لهذا وما كنا لنهتدي لولا أن هدانا الله

أوضح لي بعض المفاهيم التي طالما وددت شرحًا وفهمًا عميقًا لها.
كان نقطة تحوّل في فهمي لآيات القرآن وتدبّري لها ، ببساطة يُدخلك في جو من النقاء والجمال في حضرة الله عز وجل.
