Abstract

Abstract

The early twentieth century witnessed the emergence of several Islamic movements in the Muslim world. Arguably, two of these movements have been more influential than certain others, namely, Ikhwan al-Muslimun (Muslim Brotherhood) in Egypt and Jamaat-e-Islami (Muslim Community) in Pakistan.  This paper aims to anlayse the ideologies of their founders with a view to determining the influence they continue to have upon the similar religio-plitical movements today in the Muslim World and elsewhere. 

Key Words: Political Islam, Hasan al-Banna, Abu’l-A’la Mawdudi,
Ikhwan al-Muslimun, Jamaat-e- Islami

 

Siyasal İslâm”ın Öncüleri: El-Benna ve el-Mevdûdî’nin İdeolojileri Üzerine Bir Analiz

Öz

Yirminci yüzyılın ilk dönemi, İslam Dünyası’nda bazı etkili dini-siyasi sosyal hareketlerin ortaya çıktığı bir dönemdir. Öyle anlaşılıyor ki bu hareketlerin en güçlüleri Mısır merkezli İhvan-i Müslimîn ve Pakistan merkezli Cemaat-i İslami’dir. Bu hareketlerin öteki benzer hareketlere oranla daha etkili olduğu hususunda neredeyse bir konsensüs olduğu söylenebilir.  Bu makale, söz konusu sosyal siyasal ve dini hareketlerin, takip eden yıllarda ortaya çıkan benzer hareketleri nasıl etkilediğini belirleyebilmek amacıyla, kurucularının ideolojilerini araştırmayı hedeflemektedir.

Anahtar Kelimeler: Siyasal İslâm, Hasan el-Bennâ, Ebu’l-A’la Mevdûdî,
İhvan-i Müslimîn, Cemaat-i İslami
