Introduction Over the years, the world has experienced many acts of terrorism resulting in massive loss of life and property. Terror movements are formed by people who share a common ideology, be it political or social. Others are inspired by specific issues, such as environmental concerns, and strive to pressure the government and public to enact or repeal particular policies to meet their interests. Today, some of the renowned terror groups include the Islamic State, al-Qaeda, Taliban, Alshabaab, Muslim Brotherhood, and Boko Haram (“Reports on International Terrorism”). The movements utilize multiple strategies to gain new followers. This may be through spreading online propaganda or direct recruitment by the movements’ members or leaders. The terror groups mostly target and radicalize people with financial challenges. However, an individual’s social background and family dynamics may increase their chances of being radicalized. To fight terrorism, governments worldwide have allocated massive resources to detect and thwart any planned terror activities before they occur.

During its formation, it received much support from the lower-middle class, who differed from the British government’s social stratifications. By 1938, it had gained over 500,000 followers and growing prominence in the surrounding nations (TeachMideast). This marked the beginning of its expansive network, which has increased its dominance in the world today. The influence of the Brotherhood was witnessed when it rallied a lot of support for the 1936 Arab Revolt in Palestine, which targeted to overthrow the British administration. Nonetheless, in 1948, the Egyptian government banned the organization, and its assets were frozen following differences in ideologies. Two months later, unknown assailants assassinated Al-Banna, and Ḥasan al-Huḍaybī was elected as the new leader (Willi 8). In 1952, the Brotherhood joined the Free Officers’ coup to overthrow the British administration, and Gamel Abdel Nasser became president (Willi 8). However, his ideologies contradicted those of the Brotherhood, causing a rift between his government and the organization. The Brotherhood pushed for the implementation of the Sharia law while Nasser had a socialist vision. Consequently, in 1954, the organization tried to assassinate Nasser, and its opera
