yes I seem to remember that it is Turkish but linked Barelvis.

mm that book holds Ibn Taymiyyah (ra) and Tabilighi Jamaat in very low esteem.

a bit off putting.

Yet Sayid Qutub one of the Ikwani Muslimeen founders was obviously influenced by the fascist catholic doctor Alex Carrel who he quotes and agrees with all the time. Fascists it must be remembered like communists will say and do anything to get into power. Once in power they set about creating their totalitarian state, telling everyone its for their own good/benefit. Statists love creating a powerful state it is intoxicating for the nafs to play 'god', and whoever sits in the driving seat then gets to control everything. At least in a more de-centralized and distributed country it is very difficult for a control freak tyrant to take control of the country, he finds the driving seat, but the controls and gears do not work. This is preferable and amenable to deen. The Ikhwanis are trying to recreate a 19th and 20th century state...when we all know that power does not reside in politics..it resides in the 'international' bankers.
