Development of Ibn taymIyyah’s IDeas In the works of sayyID Qutb (1906-1966)

Abstract

In modern Islam, Sayyid Qutb is considered one of the main ideologues of fundamentalism. S. Qutb reinterpreted traditional Islamic concepts for use in political activities. Their main goal was to justify the violent seizure of power in the state. Thus, his ideas had a huge impact on the jihadist takfiris. In turn, the worldview and subsequent political concepts of Qutb himself were formed under the influence of many medieval thinkers, including Ibn Taymiyyah. The purpose of the study is to study the influence of the ideas of Ibn Taymiyyah on S. Qutb, and his interpretation of the teachings of this religious figure. The scientific novelty lies in a comprehensive study of the influence of Ibn Taymiyyah’s ideas on the worldview of S. Qutb. During the comparative analysis of the political situation, it was noted that the teachings of Ibn Taymiyyah had a serious impact on the worldview of S. Qutb, especially on the formation of his concepts of jahiliyyah, hakimiyya and jihad, which subsequently led to their specific interpretation and the development of various forms of modern terrorism.
