This study examines the relationship between Sufi orders andsocio-political movements in early twentieth century Egypt, by paying special attention tothe pan-Islamic trends prevalent in this period. As the cases to illustrate Sufis’ involvementin socio-political movements, I focused on two pan-Islamic organizations in which someprominent Sufis were involved. A close analysis on the organizational significance andhistorical background that support the founding and activities of these two organizationsreveals the way Sufis of this period actively participated in these movements.
