In March, Hassan al-Banna established the Muslim Brotherhood, a significant organization in Egypt's history. Al-Banna, a schoolteacher and preacher, founded the group as a response to the perceived moral and social decline in Egyptian society. The Muslim Brotherhood aimed to promote Islamic values, social justice, and political activism.
The organization quickly gained popularity for its grassroots approach, providing social services and educational programs to the community. It also became a platform for political dissent and opposition to British colonial rule in Egypt. The Muslim Brotherhood's influence grew rapidly, attracting a large following among the Egyptian population.
The establishment of the Muslim Brotherhood by Hassan al-Banna marked a turning point in Egyptian politics and society. It inspired a wave of Islamist movements across the Middle East and North Africa, influencing the region's political landscape for decades to come.
