  Hassan al-Banna
Hassan al-Banna was a man of modest background from the Nile Delta region in northern Egypt, and educated as a teacher from Cairo Teachers College and from the famous Al-Azhar University.
The organization he started when he was 22 was initially a moderate one in its intent, but changes in the political climate and reorientations in its ideology, made the Brotherhood active in violent operations from the late 1940's.
Banna's legacy is still active, and his movement has spread to many other Muslim countries.

Rather, he left a directionless, bickering body of conflicting factions with little in common but their nihilistic quest to replace prevailing religious and political institutions with a politicised and therefore limited interpretation of the Sharia.
Assessing Banna's legacy, it is difficult to conclude other than that the destructive elements of his legacy (the aforementioned nihilism) outweigh the constructive elements (which include an emphasis on public service and social integration).

Ahmed Seif Hassan Banna Al Islam, son of the assassinated founder, has admitted that production has begun on the movie, but remains cryptic as to the identities of the potential actors and where it will be filmed.
Islam said that the film would show Banna's early days, growing up in a village in the Delta region of Egypt, moving on to his founding of the Muslim Brotherhood in 1928 with six compatriots from the Suez Canal Company, and to their confrontations with the government and his assassination by government agents in 1949.
Banna's youth was marked with confusion as his religious fervor began to take hold, Islam said the movie would show.

Al Banna entered politics as a fighter and was concerned about religion and identity while Hariri was preoccupied with development and reconstruction without exhibiting much anxiety about identity, which the Muslim Brotherhood was created to defend and protect from those who sought to “destroy it” or “invade it”.
This was the message al Banna sought to spread from the beginning of the century until his death.
Hassan Al Banna epitomized a break with the past, conflict, a bloodied dream seeking to recapture what was no longer there and what never existed in the first place.

The teachings of al Banna and the early leaders have deeply influenced the way Islamist organizations approach their separate struggles.
Hassan al Banna wrote in his books of a comprehensive movement, a movement of religion, of sport, of education, a movement for a peaceful solution, a movement of Quran, and so on.
I think that the seeds of jihad and the armed struggle are found in the principles of the Muslim Brotherhood, but at the time of Hassan al Banna, the focus was on education, on teaching people, and in guiding people to understand Islam.

If Hassan al-Banna's son-in-law, Said Ramadan, escaped this fate (after four brief months in prison), it was above all because he had been chosen by the founder to be the Muslim Brotherhood's roving ambassador abroad.
It was here, in a house situated not far from the League of Nations buildings in the heart of Geneva, that Tariq Ramadan was born in 1962--the fifth and final son out of a total of six children.

As for the refutation of Shaikh Ahmad bin Yahyaa an-Najmee, then it is the longer of the two, and is the most powerful, and uses some harsh language (bearing in mind that the Shaikh is senior to Ibn Jibreen) in outlining the great injustice of Ibn Jibreen in his accusations.
It also contains an excellent and detailed refutation of Hassan al-Bannaa and Muhammad Ilyaas, and their great deviations and heresies, and who were far astray from the aqeedah of the Salaf.
