This is the official slogan of the Muslim Brotherhood.
“Allah is our objective.
The Prophet is our leader.
Qur'an is our law.
Jihad is our way.
Dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope.”
The Prophet is our leader.
Qur'an is our law.
Jihad is our way.
Dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope.”
- Hassan al-Banna (1906 – 1949) founder of Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood in 1928.

The Muslim Brotherhood vs. freedom[Excerpt: "The fact is, the bulk of Muslims in the Mideast are devout enough that, given a vote, they'd often choose an Islamist government. Most Egyptians I know believe the Brotherhood isn't strong enough at this point to win a popular election to head the government -- but they fear that Mohammad ElBaradei and the United States are falling for what they see as the group's very savvy p.r. "]
The Obama administration has welcomed the involvement of the Muslim Brotherhood in a new Egyptian government as long as it "renounces violence." This really misses the point.

The Brotherhood Amongst Us
---------------The Muslim Brotherhood has long been a major political force in the Muslim world. Its power comes from a deep conviction among Muslims in general that its ideology represents true Islam and that it is the front line of defense of Islam and its protection from any novelty or change. As a matter of fact, there is a law in Sharia that entrusts the Muslim head of state with just that: protecting Islam from any “bidaa” — meaning novelty. Many Muslims in the West defend not only the Brotherhood but also many of its affiliates such as Hamas, and place them in high regard. To many Muslims, criticizing the Brotherhood is equivalent to attacking Islam itself. Thus, the Brotherhood has been a major force in bringing down regimes and installing new governments, and whether we like it or not they will play a significant role in any administration, whether it is openly Islamic or nominally secular.
