The Thirteen Tenets of the Muslim Brotherhood—and why we should be concerned. |

The Muslim Brotherhood is a Islamic fundamental organisation that promotes violent jihad as a means to gain a global caliphate —the world submitted under Islamic rule.

The motto of the Brotherhood was traditionally “Believers are but Brothers”. That was expanded into a five-part slogan: “Allah is our objective; the Qur’an is the Constitution; the Prophet is our leader; jihad is our way; death for the sake of Allah is our wish.”

They formed in 1928 to foster the unlimited spread of Islam, until the “Ummah”—the Nation of Islam “gains its rightful position” which is “the most exalted nation in the world”. Their ideology promotes the Koranic doctrine of Muslims as the “Master Race” and the global caliphate as the rightful world’s government.

To this end they have trained and continue to train most of the leaders of current day terrorist organisations while penetrating their influence even into the White House. Their major supporter is Qatar. They adhere to the strictest form of Islam—Salfism while coming from Sufi mindset.

To expose their ideals we provide the following excerpts taken from the book:

“Jihad is the Way” by Mustafa Mashhur—Leader of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, from 1996 - 2002

1. Goal is Islamic world domination
“…the Islamic Ummah [nation]… can regain its power, be liberated and assume its rightful position which was intended by Allah, as the most exalted nation among men, as the teachers of humanity…”

2. Racial Supremists:
“…know your status, so that you firmly believe that you are the masters of the world, even if your enemies desire your degradation…”

3. Establishment of an Islamic State
“It should be known that Jihad and preparation for Jihad are not only for the purpose of fending-off assaults and attacks against Muslims by Allah’s enemies, but are also for the purpose of realizing the great task of establishing an Islamic state, strengthening the religion and spreading it around the world…”

4. Jihad, Not limited to Islamic Countries
“…Jihad for Allah is not limited to the specific region of the Islamic countries. The Muslim homeland is one and is not divided. The banner of Jihad has already been raised in some of its parts, and it shall continue to be raised, with the help of Allah, until every inch of the land of Islam will be liberated, the State of Islam will be established…”

5. Jihad is the religious duty of everyone
“Jihad is a religious public duty… incumbent upon the Islamic nation. Jihad is a personal duty to fend off the infidels’ attack on the nation…” “The youth should know that the problems of the Islamic world, such as Palestine, Afghanistan, Syria, Eritrea, or the Philippines, are not issues of territories and nations, but of faith and religion. They are problems of Islam and the Muslims, and they can be resolved neither by negotiation nor by recognizing the enemy’s right to the Islamic land he stole. Rather, the only option is Jihad for Allah, and this is why Jihad is the way.”

6. Sword of jihad is the symbol
“The symbol of the [Muslim] Brotherhood is the book of Allah [the Quran] between two swords. The swords symbolize Jihad and the force that protects the truth represented in Allah’s book.”

7 All must answer the call of jihad, everywhere.
“You should be prepared to answer the call of Jihad whenever you are called, in any region of the Islamic world. Our Islam is universal not regional, and all Islamic countries are one homeland. “go out to battle, oh believers, young and old, by foot or on horseback, under all circumstances and conditions”

8. Timing: Don’t rush, prepare carefully for Jihad.
“The [Muslim] Brotherhood will never rush after the youth’s enthusiasm to carry out immature and unplanned actions, which will not alter the corrupt reality and may even harm Islamic activity, and will benefit the people of falsehood…”

9. Choose your targets
“…it is not necessary for the Muslims to repel every attack or damage caused by the enemies of Allah immediately, rather [this is required] when ability and the circumstances allow for it.”

10 Prepare and train for warfare
“Prepare yourself and train in the art of warfare, and possess the components of power. You must learn the ways, manners and laws of war. You must learn them and embrace them and adhere to them, so that your Jihad will be accepted by Allah.”

11. Equip yourself for warfare
“… every Muslim has an unavoidable personal duty to equip himself and prepare for Jihad...”

12 Personal goal: Aspire to Shahada - Death for Allah. “Allah is our goal, the Prophet is our leader, the Quran is our constitution, Jihad is our way, and death for Allah is our most exalted wish.”

“Jihad is our way and Shahada (Martyrdom - Death for Allah) is our most exalted wish. This is the call that we and the men of Da’awa (Islamic missionary activity) have always called … Many of our beloved ones have already achieved this wish … We ask Allah to accept all of them… May He join us with them…”

13. Jihad against Israel: “Honorable brothers achieved Shahada (Martyrdom) on the soil of beloved Palestine, in 1947 and 1948, in their Jihad against the criminal, thieving gangs of Zion. The Imam and Shahid (Martyr) Hassan Al-Banna is considered a Shahid (Martyr) of Palestine, even though he was not killed on its soil.”

The Extent of its influence:

“The Brotherhood organization formed by Hasan al-Bannain in Egypt in 1928 was designed to function as the spear point of the Islamo-fascist movement and its crusade against the West. The Brotherhood spawned al-Qaeda and Hamas. Its doctrines make up the core of the terrorist jihad conducted by organizations such as Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah, Hamas, and the government of Iran.

Its agendas have been clear since its creation: infiltration, subversion and global terror with world conquest as the goal.

This is the extended influence of Al-Quaeda “spreading like a spider web, like a wildfire through Northern Africa and the Middle East.”
