   "The roots of the Muslim Brotherhood in the UAE can be traced back to the 1970s, although sources differ over exactly when its activities began. In The Muslim Brotherhood and the UAE (Al-Mesbar Studies & Research Center) Saudi researcher Abdullah bin Bejad Al-Otaibi argues that the Muslim Brotherhood first gained a foothold in the UAE between the late 1960s and mid-1970s. As evidence, he cites a quote from Ali Ashmawi, a former Brotherhood member, discussing the new organization with Sayyid Qutb around the year 1965: 'The Brotherhood in the Emirates has chosen Brother Izz Al-Din Ibrahim as its leader.'
