Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the subsequent study is to explain the divisions within Sunni Islamism (i.e., the Wahhabism and the Muslim Brotherhood) in order to avoid mistakes and to put facts in their proper contexts. This distinction is also very important for the policy makers which must adress each group separately and form distinct policies for each.
