| Итог: | This article examines the influence of the renowned Indo-Pakistani thinker and activist Abu al-A‘la al-Mawdudi (1903-1979) on the political thought of two contemporary Arab Islamist thinkers: Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi (1926-) and Sayyid Qutb (1906-1966). In his extensive discourse on politics, Mawdudi resurrected and popularized two intersecting notions: the Islamic state and God's sovereignty (hakimiyyat Allah, or hakimiyya). Borrowing these two pivotal Islamist notions from Mawdudi, Qaradawi and Qutb utilized them to construct contending perspectives on politics and society in majority-Muslim states. The article argues that the divergent views of Qaradawi and Qutb can be attributed, at least in part, to the fluidity of Mawdudi’s notions of the Islamic state and hakimiyya, and their pliability to different interpretations. This fluidity helps explain the different stances of Qaradawi and Qutb on whether, or not, hakimiyya is compatible with popular sovereignty and democracy. Furthermore, the article underscores the cross-fertilization of ideas between the Arab and non-Arab (in this case South Asian) parts of the Islamic World. |
