The Society of the Muslim Brothers, better known as the Muslim Brotherhood, is a transnational Sunni Islamist organization founded in Egypt by Islamic scholar and schoolteacher Hassan al-Banna in 1928. Al-Banna's teachings spread far beyond Egypt, influencing today various Islamist movements from charitable organizations to political parties—not all using the same name; as a Pan-Islamic and social movement, it preached Islam in Egypt, taught the illiterate, set up hospitals and business enterprises. It advanced into the political arena, aiming to end British colonial control of Egypt; the movement's self-stated aim is the establishment of a state ruled by Sharia law–its most famous slogan worldwide being: "Islam is the solution". Charity is a major propellant to its work; the group spread to other Muslim countries but has its largest, or one of its largest, organizations in Egypt despite a succession of government crackdowns starting in 1948 up until today, with accusations of planning assassinations and plots.

It remained a fringe group in politics of the Arab World until the 1967 Six-Day War, when Islamism managed to replace popular secular Arab nationalism after a resounding Arab defeat by Israel. The movement was supported by Saudi Arabia, with which it shared mutual enemies like communism; the Arab Spring brought it legalization and substantial political power at first, but as of 2013 it has suffered severe reversals. The Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood was legalized in 2011 and won several elections, including the 2012 presidential election when its candidate Mohamed Morsi became Egypt's first president to gain power through an election, though one year following massive demonstrations and unrest, he was overthrown by the military and placed under house arrest; the group was banned in Egypt and declared as a terrorist organization. Persian Gulf monarchies of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates followed suit, driven by the perception that the Brotherhood is a threat to their authoritarian rule.

The Brotherhood itself claims to be a peaceful, democratic organization, that its leader "condemns violence and violent acts". Today, the primary state backers of the Muslim Brotherhood are Turkey; as of 2015, it is considered a terrorist organization by the governments of Bahrain, Russia, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. The Brotherhood's English-language website describes its principles as including firstly the introduction of the Islamic Sharia as "the basis for controlling the affairs of state and society" and secondly, working to unify "Islamic countries and states among the Arab states, liberate them from foreign imperialism". According to a spokesman on its English-language website, the Muslim Brotherhood believes in reform, freedom of assembly, etc. We believe that the political reform is the natural gateway for all other kinds of reform. We have announced our acceptance of democracy that acknowledges political pluralism, the peaceful rotation of power and the fact that the nation is the source of all powers.

As we see it, political reform includes the termination of the state of emergency, restoring public freedoms, including the right to establish political parties, whatever their tendencies may be, the freedom of the press, freedom of criticism and thought, freedom of peaceful demonstrations, freedom of assembly, etc. It includes the dismantling of all exceptional courts and the annulment of all exceptional laws, establishing the independence of the judiciary, enabling the judiciary to and supervise general elections so as to ensure that they authentically express people's will, removing all obstacles that restrict the functioning of civil society organizations, etc, its founder, Hassan Al-Banna, was influenced by Islamic modernist reformers Muhammad Abduh and Rashid Rida, with the group structure and approach being influenced by Sufism. Al-Banna avoided controversies over doctrine, it downplayed doctrinal differences between schools emphasizing the political importance of worldwide unity of the Muslim Nation.

As Islamic Modernist beliefs were co-opted by secularist rulers and official `ulama, the Brotherhood has become traditionalist and conservative, "being the only available outlet for those whose religious and cultural sensibilities had been outraged by the impact of Westernization". Al-Banna believed the Quran and Sunnah constitute a perfect way of life and social and political organization that God has set out for man. Islamic governments must be based on this system and unified in a Caliphate; the Muslim Brotherhood's goal, as stated by its founder al-Banna was to drive out British colonial and other Western influences, reclaim Islam's manifest destiny—an empire, stretching from Spain to Indonesia. The Brotherhood preaches that Islam will bring social justice, the eradication of poverty and sinful behavior, political freedom. Blended with methods of modern social sciences, some key thinkers of Brotherhood have contemplated the Islamic perspective on bureaucratic effectiveness, mapping out solutions to problems of formalism and irresponsiveness to public concerns in public administration, which pertains to the pro-democratic tenets of Muslim Brotherhood.

Such variations of thoughts have purportedly negated the realities of contemporary Muslim countries as their authors have proclaimed. On the issue of women and gender the Muslim Brotherhood interprets Is

Grigoriy Yegorov made his official comeback for his second Olympic bid, since he won the bronze medal in the men's pole vault at the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul, representing the Soviet Union.

Pistol shooter Galina Belyayeva was the oldest and most accomplished member of the team at age 55. Meanwhile, backstroke swimmer Anastassiya Prilepa set a historic milestone for the Kazakh team as the youngest athlete, aged 14, to compete at the Olympics. Kazakhstan left Athens with a total of eight Olympic medals, finishing fortieth in the overall medal count; this was the nation's poorest Olympic performance in history since the breakup of the Soviet Union, collecting only a single gold medal from welterweight boxer Bakhtiyar Artayev. Three of these medals were awarded each to the athletes in boxing and wrestling, including Artayev's illustrious gold, while Dmitriy Karpov added a second Olympic medal for Kazakhstan in track and field by claiming the bronze in men's decathlon. Weightlifter Sergey Filimonov captured a bronze in the men's 77 kg class. On February 12, 2013, the International Olympic Committee stripped Russia's Oleg Perepetchenov of his 2004 Olympic medal after both probes were retested and showed traces of anabolic steroids, upgrading Filimonov's medal to silver.

San Salvatore in Onda is a Roman Catholic church, located on via dei Pettinari #56-58, in rione Regola of Rome, Italy. The church is about a block southwest along the via from the church of Santissima Trinità dei Pellegrini; the Via dei Pettinari retraces the route of an ancient path which starts from the Pons Aurelius and headed towards the Theatre of Pompey. A church at the site was present by the 12th century, is mentioned in a bull by Pope Honorius II in 1127, it was dedicated under the title "Transfiguration of our Lord Jesus Christ". The Transfiguration was depicted in the apse by Filippo Prosperi. Between the windows, in each of the eight quadrants divided by pilasters on the dark red wall, Prósperi frescoed, on gold and patriarchs of the Old Testament that foreshadowed the Savior; the suffix in onda derives from the frequent floods of the district by the Tiber river. By 1260, a church was erected and placed under the ownership of a monastic order of Paul of Thebes, the first Christian hermit.

In January 1445, the church and adjacent convent were ceded to the Conventual Franciscans by Pope Eugene IV, in 1844, Pope Gregory XVI ceded the church to a new order organized by Vincenzo Pallotti. The campanile has two bells of 1850 to replace the previous, seized by the Roman Republic in 1848; the church underwent reconstruction in 1867, including elevation, directed by Luca Carimini, who used a basilica design.

Francesco di Paola Cassetta; the church is divided by twelve pillars into three naves. In the center of the apse is a fresco depicting Virgin and Child by Cesare Mariani, which replaced the picture of the Queen of the Apostles by Serafino Cesaretti. Under the main altar is a sarcophagus made by Arnoldo Brandizzi which, since 1950, contains the body of St Vincent Pallotti; the Lady Chapel of the Virgo Potens opens to the right nave.

On the altar is the picture of the “Virgo Potens” donated by the Venerable Elisabetta Sanna, who died in 1857 and was buried in this chapel; the Stations of the Cross were made by Domenico Cassarotti. The organ is the work of Pietro Pantanella. Below the presbytery of the church, there is a crypt, dating to the eighth century. Under the crypt, below the level of the city are wine storerooms of Roman times. Pope John Paul II visited the church on June 22, 1986, he had stayed at the Generalate House for some weeks in 1946 while a student in Rome.
