The rise of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt in the 1920s is considered to be one of the key events that contributed to the origin of twentieth-century religious fundamentalism in the Middle East. The Muslim Brotherhood promoted a conservative and fundamentalist interpretation of Islam, advocating for the implementation of Islamic law (Sharia) and resisting Western influence in the region. This ideology would influence other Islamist movements in the region and contribute to the broader trend of religious fundamentalism in the Middle East in the twentieth century.
