Shiite domination of the Middle East.[6] His writings notably influenced Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the leader of Al-Qaeda in Iraq.[7]

Life

He was born in the

Sufi Brotherhood.[1] These disagreements contributed to his decision to relocate to Saudi Arabia in 1965.[9] However, after being expelled from Saudi Arabia in 1974 due to reports labelling his activities as subversive,[10] he moved to Kuwait. There, he established the Dar al-Arqam publishing house.[11] In 1984, Suror settled in the United Kingsom, where he established the Center for Islamic Studies.[12] His final relocation was to Jordan in 2004.[13]

Influence

Surur admired Muhammad ibn Ibrahim Al ash-Sheikh and was himself initially admired by Abu Muhammad al-Maqdisi—who later considered him to be too lenient towards the Muslim rulers.[14] Surur has also influenced Salman al-Ouda.[15]

After the death of Muhammad Surur in

Abdulrazzaq al-Mahdi released condolences upon him and commented on his impact.[16]
