However, the plan backfired as the fatwa had triggered the Muslims’ interests on the Bolshevik ideology, leaving the British authorities to change their strategies. The British authorities had the Grand Mufti of Egypt to issue a fatwa declaring that Bolshevik ideology was incompatible with Islamic teaching. Both Pan-Islam and Bolshevik were regarded as similar to communism. In the case of Egypt, the attempts to revive Pan-Islamism as well as the penetration of Bolshevik ideology were seen as a threat to the British power. Therefore, the British government has implemented approaches and methods that would restrict the influence of their enemy among the Muslims in the British Empire.

This paper aims to highlight the relationship between the British authorities and the Muslim community in Egypt, based on the historical documents such as administrative files and reports published during, and in the post of the First World War. ![]() ![]() Egypt, British, World War 1, Bolshevik Abstract ![]()
