  Sayyid Qutb
Sayyid Qutb was born on 8 October 1906, in a village called "Musha" in the township of Qaha in the province of Assyout in Egypt.
Sayyid Qutb resumed his job as a teacher and inspector in the ministry of education before he resigned in October 1952 (again because of his repeated philosophical disagreements with the minister of education and many of his colleagues).
Sayyid Qutb will always be remembered for his legacy of clearly defining the basic ideas of the Oneness and sovereignty of Allah, the clear distinction between pure faith and the association of partners with Allah (Shirk) overt and hidden, and the only hope for salvation of humanity.

His family were the most notable sayyids of the village of 'Aynata, which sat astride the then-open frontier between Lebanon and Palestine; his father, one of the foremost clerics in the district, supervised a local seminary.
Sayyid Musa had antagonized many of the landed families in south Lebanon, whom he accused of exploiting and misrepresenting the Shi'ite community.
Sayyid Musa sympathized with Palestinian aspirations because the Palestinians had been dispossessed, but did not believe that the Shi'ites, alone among all Arabs, should bear the burden of their struggle.

 Islamica Magazine - Sayyid Muhammad 'Alawi al-Maliki   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
This is where Sayyid Muhammad was born in 1367 AH He went to school in Mecca, but his first and most important teacher was his father, the illustrious Sayyid 'Alawi (1328-1391) whose name was a rather unusual one for an Idrisi sharif.
Sayyid 'Alawi was a tireless teacher who held open sessions that everyone in Mecca was welcome to attend in the Sacred Mosque daily between Maghrib and 'Isha, then devoted himself to teaching students of sacred science after 'Isha.
The untimely loss of Sayyid Muhammad 'Alawi al-Maliki has been, and is likely to remain for some time to come, deeply felt by the Muslim community as a whole, but especially by the people of Hijaz who were so attached to him and who had placed in him all their hopes for a better future.

The life of Sayyid Razí who was born in 359 AH/970 CE in Baghdad and died in the year 406/1015 in his hometown, coincided with the era of the Buyid dynasty (334-447/946-1056) which had reduced the Abbasid caliphs to mere nominal rulers.
Sayyid Razí was born in a prominent household directly descended from the Prophet, as is clear from the epithets of ‘Sayyid’ and ‘Sharíf’ by which he was referred.
Sayyid Razí’s mother Fàtimah also traced her lineage to the Prophet and was the daughter of Husayn bin Abê Muhammad al-Hasan al-Utrêsh bin ‘Alí bin Hasan bin ‘Umar al-Ashraf the son of the 4th Infallible Imam, ‘Alí ibn al-Husayn Zayn al-‘Abidín (‘a).

In this Sayyid Qutb departed from Maulana Maudoodi's articulation of "partial jahiliyyah" in which the late Pakistani scholar was prepared to concede to the systems prevalent in Muslim societies some room for modification and hence a degree of respectability.
According to the Sadat's own account, Sayyid Qutb was the main ideologue of the Free Officers' 'revolution.' Had the coup failed, it is clear that Sayyid Qutb would have paid with his life.

 Religioscope - Interview wit Prof. Abu Rabi about Sayyid Qutb
Initially Sayyid Qutb was a secular man of letters in Egypt, before he converted fully to Islamic ideas in the 1940s.
But the second major factor that led perhaps to an increase in the charisma of Sayyid Qutb is the Nasserite  revolution of 1952, because now, after 1952, we are dealing with a fundamentally different situation than had been current in Egypt before that time.
In the 1940s or so, Sayyid Qutb began to be more and more aware of the importance of the Quran in the Islamic life.

In political terms, Sayyid was a little naive and through his outspoken views actually alienated Ildram Mirza who had earlier been introduced to the Babi cause by Mulla Abdu'l Karim Qazvini (the Bab's secretary) and given copies of the Bab's writings through Nabil Zarandi.
Sayyid Basir seems to have been a charismatic figure who impressed his audience through a combination of Sufi and spiritual experiences.

Sayyid Qutb was born in 1906 in the province of Asyut, which is located in southern Egypt.
The writings of Sayyid Qutb have provided Muslim leaders like Osama bin Laden and Ayman al-Zawahiri with a foundation for the philosophical defense of a staunch and intense dislike of the West and its ultimate consequence, terrorism.

GRAND AYATOLLAH Sayyid Husayn Bahr al-Ulum was a member of one of the most prominent families of sayyids (direct descendants of the Prophet Mohamed) in Iraq.
The family bore the surname (nisba) of Tabatabai up to the time of Sayyid Muhammad Mahdi, the 18th-century scholar and jurist who was the first to bear the surname Bahr al-Ulum (meaning literally the "sea of sciences").
In the 1990s, when Ayatollah Sayyid Muhammad al-Sadr was being accused, falsely, of collaborating with the regime, Bahr al-Ulum was perhaps the only religious leader to stand firmly by his side.

Since his execution in 1964 in Cairo, his death became the perfect illustration of one of the processes through which a human being becomes part of the revolutionary movement aimed at changing the world and bringing in a new ethical moral order based on freedom, brotherhood, and justice for all.
It was in this atmosphere that an-shaheed Sayyid Qutb bravely raised his voice – indeed his pen – against the false ideologies and in one clean sweep denounced them as a modern-day jahiliyyah (the primitive savagery of pre-Islamic days).
