註釋
A translation of and commentary on the essay "Our Struggle with the Jews, " by Sayyid Qutb (1906-1968), the Egyptian Muslim fundamentalist writer and activist. The translation of the essay, first published in the early 1950s, is given on pp. 72-87. Nettler emphasizes that the Muslim-Jewish political conflict over the existence of Israel has been accompanied by the growth of an anti-Jewish religious doctrine. Though founded on traditional themes, the view of the struggle with the Jews as a cosmic war is unprecedented in its emotional intensity and intellectual rigor. Surveys early Islam's essentially negative portrayal of the Jews as arrogant falsifiers of God's truth. Fundamentalism tries to revive the spirit of early Islam, presenting the Jews as a symbol of Western success and the cause of the crisis in Islam. Qutb's essay is an expression of these fundamentalist views, arguing that the Jews are a major and satanic threat to Islam and that Muslims can defeat them through a return to Islam.
