Clarification of what was attributed to the Shaykh regarding the Muslim Brotherhood in the magazine

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: I respect you, hold you in high esteem, and love you for the sake of Allah, but I have a word of reproach for Your Eminence. I read today in *Al-Majallah* magazine an interview with Your Eminence, in which it was written in your name regarding the Muslim Brotherhood, and I do not know what was intended by it. It was written, or rather clarified, to the effect that the Muslim Brotherhood does not care about creed, that they celebrate the Mawlid, and that they do many religious innovations (bid'ah). I was greatly shocked by this statement, because I have dealt with the Brotherhood in Egypt for many years and I did not know anything of that about them. I also dealt with Your Eminence for years and did not find in their dealings any religious innovation, or anything of what was written about them in this article. In fact, the cause of their trial and the harm that befell them was because of their standing against these evils. Therefore, I ask Your Eminence to correct this statement. May Allah preserve you.

Answer:
Many of the Brotherhood have been quoted as saying that. Even when a group of scholars and brothers quote that the Muslim Brotherhood does not have a comprehensive and long-term activity in analysis regarding shirk (associating partners with Allah) and calling upon the people of graves, this is, in any case, seen in their books and their biography if one reads their books; one sees that from them. We ask Allah for forgiveness for their dead and success and guidance for their living. It is necessary to review it. Yes.
