This research intends to answer this question using an analytical descriptive - analytical method. Studies of research shows that factors such as religious ideology, strong organization, popular support and emphasis on political participation have contributed to the strengthening of the Muslim Brotherhood and on the other hand, components such as the lack of strong and coherent leadership after power, inconsistency in opinion and practice, lack of consensus and engagement with other political groups and dependence on the West led to the Brotherhood collapse of power.
