    Qutbism (also Kotebism, Qutbiyya, or Qutbiyyah) is the radical strain of Islamist ideology and activism, based on the thought and writings of Sayyid Qutb, a notorious Islamist and former leading member of the Muslim Brotherhood who was executed in 1966. Qutbee or Qutbi (also Qutbists) are followers of these ideals. These terms originated from, and are mainly used by opponents of the Muslim Brotherhood in general and Qutb in particular, and by Muslims who seek to distance themselves from the activities of militant groups based on or influenced by Qutbism.

    Qutbism has gained notoriety from its massive influence on jihadi extremists like Osama bin Laden. According to observers, jihadi extremists "cite Sayyid Qutb repeatedly and consider themselves his intellectual descendants."
