Sururiya
Sahwa movement () or ''al-Sahwa al-Islamiyya'' (Islamic awakening) was a movement in Saudi Arabia from 1960–1980 which advocated for an increased reliance on Wahhabi principles in Saudi society by adopting Qutbism. The most noticeable effects of the movement were significant restrictions on women's rights, religious freedom, and personal liberties. The movement's core doctrines were shaped by the fundamentalist tenets of Qutbism; such as theological denunciations of democracy and the belief that contemporary governments of the Muslim World have apostatised. Sahwa is a Saudi term that refers to all political Islam movements whose major umbrella is the Qutbi Muslim Brotherhood.

The Sahwa-inspired ulema have been a key influence in major government decisions, for example the imposition of the oil embargo in 1973 and the invitation to foreign troop ...
