Known in the post-9/11 context as one of the fathers of Islamic extremism, Egyptian author Sayyid Qutb was writing squarely in the mainstream of anti-British nationalism and Muslim Brotherhood-style Islamism in the early post-World War II period. Despite Qutb's public antagonism in the Egyptian press against America, Great Britain, and the Cold War paradigm, the U.S. government allowed him to spend two years in the United States on an exchange from the Ministry of Education. Furthermore, it appears that the U.S. government secretly paid for Qutb's 1949 treatise, Social Justice in Islam, to be translated into English and published in 1953. No sources in the existing literature adequately explain either the value of Social Justice in Islam to the U.S. government or the importance of Qutb's works from this period to his own career.
