نبذة الناشر:The Muslim Brotherhood (MB) deal with political participation and the peaceful transfer of power in an opportunistic and pragmatic manner, rooted in both political and religious dissimulation, or taqiyya. Their objectives are to attain power and establish a state under the Brotherhood, aspiring to global leadership under the banner of ..."Stewardship of the World," based on the foundational principles and ideas espoused by their founder, Hassan al-Banna.
