Sayyid Qutb

Sayyid 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As the author of 24 published books, with around 30 unpublished for different reasons (mainly destruction by the state), and at least 581 articles, including novels, literary arts critique and works on education, Qutb is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".

استمتعت جداً , في هذه الظلال المُطمئنة
وتعمّدت في قراءات كثيرة لي منه أن أقرأه بصوت عالٍ حتى أشعر أن الصوت يخرج من قلب السجن الذي كتبه فيه ويتوزع في الهواء , وكثيراً ما عبّأتُ هوامش الكتاب بالإطراء الذي لا أجد غيره :

" الله الله الله "

كتاب الظلال في جزئه الخامس , فيه تأملات سيد قطب لأجزاء القرآن من الجزء 19 إلى 25
وكل السور فيه مكية ما عدا سورة الأحزاب .

* التفسير يعني = فهم معاني الكلمات + سبب النزول + الدرس من الآية
وهذا ليس هو منهج كتاب سيد قطب , لذا فهو ليس تفسير
لذلك أنصح بالقرآءة تزامناً مع الظلال تفسير مُيسر مثل : تفسير أبو بكر الجزائري
وهذا يُعطي لك : بُعدين

التفسير المٌبسط : معاني وأسباب نزول ودروس
ظلال سيد قطب : نظرة شاملة يُظهر فيه ترابط مواضيع السورة الواحدة حتى لو ظننت أن لا شئ فيها مترابط .

* السور المكية : تُعنى في تأسيس العقيدة في الإنسان وهذا يتضمن كلا المرحلتين :
التخلية والتحلية
أي كسر الأصنام والأنداد التي في نفسك وكثرت مثلما كثرت على قريش (ظاهرياً) , ثم تجد في القرآن غسيل القلب , ويصحح مفاهيمك حول :
الألوهية , الحياة الآخرة , الوحي بالرسالة , عرض آيات الله في الأنفس والآفاق , قصص القرآن ,
جولات في الماضي ويجعلنا نتطلع على المستقبل
