Qutb, Sayyid. A Muslim Brotherhood leader executed in prison in 1966 by the government of Gamal abd al-Nasir. Sayyid Qutb studied for three years in the United States. His most important written work is probably Fi Dhill al-Qur’an (In the Shade of the Qur’an), a work of exegesis (tafsir) which demonstrates his Islamist ideas, but he is perhaps better known outside of the Middle East for his last book, Ma`alim fi Tariq (Signposts on the Road), because of its dark assessment of his era and assertion that jihad and martyrdom are necessary to fight un-Islamic governments. *** سيد قطب
