SEC. 2. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON DESIGNATION OF THE 
MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD AS A FOREIGN TER-
RORIST ORGANIZATION. 
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following: 
(1) The Muslim Brotherhood, Hizb al-Ikhwan 
al-Muslimin, was founded in Egypt in 1928 by Has-
san 
al-Banna. 
The 
organization 
remains 
headquartered in Egypt but operates throughout the 
world. The Muslim Brotherhood’s motto remains to 
this day what it has been for decades: ‘‘Allah is our 
objective. The Prophet is our leader. The Koran is 
our law. Jihad is our way. Dying in the way of Allah 
is our highest hope. Allahu-Akbar! [Allah is great-
er!]’’. 
(2) Hassan al-Banna, in a book he called 
‘‘Jihad’’, instructed members: ‘‘Jihad is an obliga-
tion from Allah on every Muslim and cannot be ig-
nored nor [sic] evaded. Allah has ascribed great im-
portance to jihad and has made the reward of the 
martyrs and fighters in His way a splendid one. 
Only those who have acted similarly and who have 
modeled themselves upon the martyrs in their per-
formance of jihad can join them in this reward.’’. 
(3) Hassan al-Banna added that ‘‘fighting the 
unbelievers involves all possible efforts that are nec-
essary to dismantle the power of the enemies of

Islam including beating them, plundering their 
wealth, destroying their places of worship, and 
smashing their idols’’. 
(4) Hassan al-Banna also taught that ‘‘it is the 
nature of Islam to dominate, not to be dominated’’, 
and thus that the mission of Islam, as interpreted 
and executed by the Muslim Brotherhood, must be 
‘‘to impose its [i.e., Islam’s] law on nations and to 
extend its power to the entire planet’’. While al- 
Banna’s plan for accomplishing this mission was 
multifaceted, it centrally incorporated training for 
and the execution of violent jihad—terrorist oper-
ations. 
(5) In the seminal 1969 book on the history of 
the Muslim Brotherhood, ‘‘The Society of Muslim 
Brothers’’, University of Michigan Professor Richard 
P. Mitchell explained al-Banna’s teachings on violent 
jihad: The certainty that jihad had this physical con-
notation is evidenced by the relationship always im-
plied between it and the possibility, even the neces-
sity, of death and martyrdom. Death, as an impor-
tant end of jihad, was extolled by al-Banna in a 
phrase which came to be a famous part of his leg-
acy: ‘‘[T]he art of death’’. ‘‘Death is art’’. The 
Koran has commanded people to love death more

than life. Unless ‘‘the philosophy of the Koran on 
death’’ replaces ‘‘the love of life’’ which has con-
sumed Muslims, then they will reach naught. Victory 
can only come with the mastery of ‘‘the art of 
death’’. The movement cannot succeed, al-Banna in-
sists, without this dedicated and unqualified kind of 
jihad. 
(6) This philosophy pervaded the Muslim 
Brotherhood’s prioritization of training for combat. 
Professor Mitchell observed that it was ‘‘the tone of 
the training which gave the Society [i.e., the Muslim 
Brotherhood] its distinctive qualities’’, adding: If the 
Muslim Brothers were more effectively violent than 
other groups on the Egyptian scene, it was because 
militancy and martyrdom had been elevated to cen-
tral virtues in the Society’s ethos. Its literature and 
speeches were permeated with references identifying 
it and its purposes in military terms. Al-Banna told 
members again and again that they were ‘‘the army 
of liberation, carrying on your shoulders the message 
of liberation; you are the battalions of salvation for 
this nation afflicted by calamity’’. 
(7) Al-Banna’s blueprint for revolution antici-
pated a final stage of ‘‘execution’’ at which point the 
‘‘battalions’’ the Muslim Brotherhood had trained

would ‘‘conquer . . . every obstinate tyrant’’. This 
violent ideology continued to be part of the Brother-
hood’s indoctrination in standard membership texts, 
such as Sayyid Qutb’s ‘‘Milestones’’ and Fathi 
Yakan’s ‘‘To Be a Muslim’’. 
(8) In Muslim Brotherhood organizations and 
chapters throughout the world, including in the 
United States, al-Banna’s originating philosophy 
continues to be taught. 
(9) In its earliest days, the Egyptian Muslim 
Brotherhood established a terrorist wing (the ‘‘secret 
apparatus’’) that conducted bombings and assassina-
tions targeting foreigners and government officials. 
The assassinations by the Muslim Brotherhood of 
Judge Ahmed Al-Khazinder Bey in 1947 and Prime 
Minister Mahmoud Al-Nuqrashi in 1948 prompted 
the first ban on the organization in Egypt. 
(10) The United States has previously des-
ignated global elements of the Muslim Brotherhood. 
The terrorist group Hamas, which self-identifies as 
‘‘one of the wings of the Muslim Brotherhood in Pal-
estine,’’ was designated as a foreign terrorist organi-
zation by President William J. Clinton on January 
23, 1995, by Executive Order 12947, and later 
under section 219(a) of the Immigration and Na-

State Madeline Albright on October 7, 1997. 
(11) The Kuwaiti Muslim Brotherhood’s Lajnat 
al-Daawa al-Islamiya (‘‘Islamic Call Committee’’) 
was designated as a foreign terrorist organization by 
President George W. Bush on September 23, 2001, 
by Executive Order 13224 and later under section 
219(a) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 
U.S.C. 1189(a)) by Secretary of State Colin Powell 
on January 9, 2003. Reasons cited for the designa-
tion included Lajnat al-Daawa al-Islamiya being 
used as a financial conduit for Osama bin Laden 
and Al-Qaeda, and its funding of terrorist groups in 
Chechnya and Libya. Both Al-Qaeda operations 
chief Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and World Trade 
Center bomber Ramzi Yousef held positions with the 
organization. 
(12) Individual Muslim Brotherhood leaders 
have also been designated on the list of Specially 
Designated Global Terrorists, as established under 
the International Emergency Economic Powers Act 
(50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) and initiated under Execu-
tive Order 13224 (September 23, 2001), by the

Majid Al-Zindani, a leader of the Yemeni Muslim 
Brotherhood’s Al-Islah political party. The designa-
tion states that al-Zindani has a ‘‘long history of 
working with Bin Laden, serving as one of his spir-
itual leaders,’’ in addition to his activities in support 
of Al-Qaeda, including recruiting and procuring 
weapons. Al-Zindani was also identified in a Federal 
lawsuit as a coordinator of the October 2000 suicide 
attack targeting the U.S.S. Cole in Aden, Yemen, 
that killed 17 United States Navy sailors, including 
personally selecting the two suicide bombers. In Sep-
tember 2012, al-Zindani reportedly called for his 
supporters to kill United States Marines stationed at 
the United States Embassy in Sana’a, Yemen. 
(13) Mohammad Jamal Khalifa, a veteran of 
the Soviet-Afghan war, senior Muslim Brotherhood 
leader, and brother-in-law and close confidant of 
Osama bin Laden was arrested in California in De-
cember 1994 on charges related to the 1993 bomb-
ing of the World Trade Center. Evidence was found 
at that time that linked Khalifa to the planned Al- 
Qaeda Operation Bojinka plot that included the 
bombing of 11 airplanes between Asia and the 
United States. He was deported to Jordan in May 
1995. Prior to that time he operated an Islamic

charity in the Philippines that was accused of fun-
neling money to the Abu Sayyef terrorist group and 
laundering money for Bin Laden. He was sought 
again by United States authorities in 2007, and an 
Interpol bulletin was issued to several United States 
intelligence agencies. Khalifa was killed four days 
later in Madagascar. 
(14) Sami Al-Hajj, an Al-Qaeda member and 
senior leader of the Muslim Brotherhood’s Shura 
Council, was imprisoned as a detainee at the De-
partment of Defense facility at Guantanamo Bay, 
Cuba. He was captured by Pakistani forces near the 
Afghanistan border in 2001 and transferred to 
United States custody. He was detained for his work 
as a money and weapons courier for Al-Qaeda. He 
reportedly worked directly with Taliban commander 
Mullah Mohammad Omar to procure weapons, and 
met with senior Afghan Muslim Brotherhood offi-
cials in mid-2001 to discuss the transfer of Stinger 
missiles from Afghanistan to Chechnya.

during October 1994 and March to April 1995 fea-
tured representatives from virtually every Islamic 
terrorist organization in the world. The conferences 
included representatives from Iranian intelligence, 
Hezbollah, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Egyptian Is-
lamic Jihad, the Algerian AIS and GIA, as well as 
leaders from the international Muslim Brotherhood, 
the Muslim Brotherhood in the Gulf Countries, 
Hamas (the Palestinian Muslim Brotherhood), the 
Islamic Action Front (Jordanian Muslim Brother-
hood), and Ennahdha (the Tunisian Muslim Broth-
erhood). Osama bin Laden was present at the con-
ferences. The parties agreed to launch a terrorism 
offensive beginning in 1995, with targets including 
United States interests and personnel in the Middle 
East and attacks inside the United States homeland. 
(16) In December 2002 a multiple vehicle borne 
improvised explosive device (VBIED) suicide attack 
targeting a four-story building in Grozny killed 57 
people. Russian counterterrorism officials claimed 
the attack was ordered and coordinated by Chechen 
warlord Shamil Basayev and Abu Walid, an official 
with the Muslim Brotherhood. They further claimed 
that days before the bombing the pair met near 
Grozny to plan this and other attacks. Russian offi-

cials also identified the international Muslim Broth-
erhood network as financing the Chechen rebels. In 
2003, the Russian Supreme Court banned the Mus-
lim Brotherhood, describing it as a terrorist organi-
zation. 
(17) Before the Committee on Banking, Hous-
ing, and Urban Affairs of the Senate in October 
2003, Richard Clarke, former National Coordinator 
for Security and Counterterrorism for Presidents 
William J. Clinton and George W. Bush, testified to 
the extent that terrorist organizations continued to 
operate inside the United States and the connection 
to the Muslim Brotherhood networks: ‘‘Dating back 
to the 1980’s, Islamist terrorist networks have devel-
oped a sophisticated and diversified financial infra-
structure in the United States. In the post Sep-
tember 11th environment, it is now widely known 
that every major Islamist terrorist organization, 
from Hamas to Islamic Jihad to Al Qida, has lever-
aged the financial resources and institutions of the 
United States to build their capabilities. We face a 
highly developed enemy in our mission to stop ter-
rorist financing. While the overseas operations of 
Islamist terrorist organizations are generally seg-
regated and distinct, the opposite holds in the

United States. The issue of terrorist financing in the 
United States is a fundamental example of the 
shared infrastructure levered by Hamas, Islamic 
Jihad and Al Qida, all of which enjoy a significant 
degree of cooperation and coordination within our 
borders. The common link here is the extremist 
Muslim Brotherhood—all of these organizations are 
descendants of the membership and ideology of the 
Muslim Brothers.’’. 
(18) One of the examples cited by Richard 
Clarke in his testimony before the Committee on 
Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs of the Senate 
was the case of Soliman Biheiri, who ran an invest-
ment firm specializing in Islamically-permissible in-
vestments, the Secaucus, New Jersey-based BMI In-
corporated. BMI Incorporated offered a range of fi-
nancial services for the Muslim community, and in-
vested in businesses and real estate. According to 
Federal prosecutors, among the shareholders of BMI 
Incorporated were Al-Qaeda financier Yassin Al- 
Qadi and top Hamas leader Mousa Abu Marzook— 
two Specially Designated Global Terrorists. Both 
Qadi and Marzook operated separate businesses out 
of the offices of BMI Incorporated that also did 
business with BMI Incorporated. Other BMI Incor-

porated investors included Abdullah bin Laden, 
nephew of Osama bin laden, and Tarek Swaidan, a 
Kuwaiti Muslim Brotherhood leader. In a September 
2003 detention hearing, Federal prosecutors de-
scribed Biheiri as ‘‘the U.S. banker for the Muslim 
Brotherhood,’’ and stating that ‘‘the defendant came 
here as the Muslim Brotherhood’s financial toehold 
in the U.S.’’. Biheiri was convicted on Federal immi-
gration charges on October 9, 2003. 
(19) The fact that the international Muslim 
Brotherhood engages in terrorism financing inside 
the United States was attested to by then-FBI Di-
rector Robert Mueller, who testified before the Per-
manent Select Committee on Intelligence of the 
House of Representatives in February 2011, and re-
sponded to a question about the Muslim Brother-
hood’s networks and agenda in the United States: ‘‘I 
can say at the outset that elements of the Muslim 
Brotherhood both here and overseas have supported 
terrorism. To the extent that I can provide informa-
tion, I would be happy to do so in closed session. 
But it would be difficult to do in open session.’’.

cials successfully argued in court that the inter-
national Muslim Brotherhood and its United States 
affiliates had engaged in a wide-spread conspiracy to 
raise money and materially support the terrorist 
group Hamas. HLF officials charged in the case 
were found guilty on all counts in November 2008, 
primarily related to millions of dollars that had been 
transferred to Hamas. During the trial and in court 
documents, Federal prosecutors implicated a number 
of prominent United States-Islamic organizations in 
this conspiracy, including the Islamic Society of 
North America (ISNA), the North American Islamic 
Trust (NAIT), and the Council on American-Islamic 
Relations (CAIR). These groups and their leaders, 
among others, were named as unindicted co-con-
spirators in the case. The Department of Justice 
told the court that these United States-Muslim 
Brotherhood affiliates acted at the direction of the 
international Muslim Brotherhood to support ter-
rorism in a July 2008 court filing: ‘‘ISNA and 
NAIT, in fact, shared more with HLF than just a 
parent organization. They were intimately connected 
with the HLF and its assigned task of providing fi-
nancial support to HAMAS. Shortly after HAMAS

national Muslim Brotherhood ordered the Muslim 
Brotherhood chapters throughout the world to create 
Palestine Committees, whose job it was to support 
HAMAS with ‘media, money and men’. Govt. Exh. 
3-15. The U.S.-Muslim Brotherhood created the 
U.S. Palestine Committee, which document reflect

later added to these organizations. Govt. Exh. 3-78

wide...’). The mandate of these organizations, per 
the International Muslim Brotherhood, was to sup-
port HAMAS, and the HLF’s particular role was to 
raise money to support HAMAS’ organizations in-
side the Palestinian territories. Govt. Exh. 3-17 (ob-
jective of the Palestine Committee is to support

the United States. Calling on Arab and Muslim re-
gimes to confront not just Israel, but also the 
United States, he declared that ‘‘Resistance is the 
only solution against the Zio-American arrogance 
and tyranny.’’ This ‘‘resistance’’ can only come from 
fighting and understanding ‘‘that the improvement 
and change that the [Muslim] nation seeks can only 
be attained through jihad and sacrifice and by rais-
ing a jihadi generation that pursues death just as 
the enemies pursue life’’. He also predicted the im-
minent downfall of the United States, saying ‘‘The 
U.S. is now experiencing the beginning of its end, 
and is heading towards its demise.’’.

lets and from its leadership. As the United States 
Commission on International Religious Freedom 
(USCIRF) has previously noted, this terror cam-
paign by the Muslim Brotherhood is not a new de-
velopment. Over the past decade violence by the 
Muslim Brotherhood has been directed at the Coptic 
community. As the USCIRF observed in its 2003 
Annual Report: ‘‘Coptic Christians face ongoing vio-
lence from vigilante Muslim extremists, including 
members of the Muslim Brotherhood, many of whom 
act with impunity.’’. 
(b) CRITERIA.—Section 219(a)(1) of the Immigration 
and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1189(a)(1)) provides the 
3 criteria for the designation of an organization as a For-
eign Terrorist Organization: 
(1) The organization must be a foreign organi-
zation. 
(2) The organization must engage in terrorist 
activity, as defined in section 212(a)(3)(B) of the 
Immigration 
and 
Nationality 
Act 
(8 
U.S.C. 
1182(a)(3)(B)), or terrorism, as defined in section 
140(d)(2) of the Foreign Relations Authorization 
Act, Fiscal Years 1988 and 1989 (22 U.S.C. 
2656f(d)(2)), or retain the capability and intent to 
engage in terrorist activity or terrorism.

the Attorney General and the Secretary of the 
Treasury, should exercise the Secretary of State’s 
statutory authority and designate the Muslim Broth-
erhood as a foreign terrorist organization. 
(d) REPORT.—If the Secretary of State does not des-
ignate the Muslim Brotherhood as a foreign terrorist orga-
nization under section 219 of the Immigration and Na-
tionality Act within 60 days after the date of the enact-
ment of this Act, the Secretary of State shall submit to 
Congress a report that contains the reasons therefor.
