Summary/Abstract: The concept of political gnosis has so far been applied to the study of communism and Nazism, among others, particularly by E. Voegelin, A. Besançon and L. Pellicani. The question arises whether the jihadist currents of Salafism fall into this category. In order to find an answer, the concept of political gnosis is reconstructed and then applied to analyze the “Milestones” – the last work of Sayyid Qutb – the chief ideologue of the Muslim Brotherhood. The arguments carried out prove that the doctrine contained therein is apolitical gnosis.
