The statements from Sheikh Hamad bin Jassim provoked a widespread anger among the Muslim Brotherhood

Since the former Qatari Prime Minister, Hamad bin Jassim Al Thani, made statements criticizing the Brotherhood, Doha’s abandonment of the Brotherhood emerged, and huge differences existed between the two parties; Brotherhood members launched a large-scale attack against it, demonstrating the end of the era of support, amity, and common interests.

Hamad bin Jassim al-Thani, former Qatari prime minister, said in his controversial remarks that the administration of former Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi is for the management of a shop, not a state.

In a lengthy interview published by the Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Qabas, Hamad bin Jassim revealed that Doha hosted a meeting between Morsi’s assistants and representatives of the Egyptian administration during his time with representatives of the American administration, in order to bring the two parties closer together, when Washington wanted to know the trends of the Egyptian regime and its economic policies.

He continued: I came out of the meeting in shock, and the level of Morsi’s group was not up to the debate at the time. They were poor people who were good at running a shop, not the state. Morsi’s unanimous supporters were much lower than expected and not up to the standard.

In his speech, Qatar’s former prime minister attacked the Brotherhood; He said they were unfit for anything, which angered members of the group, who went out in turn to attack Ben Jassim and defend Mohamed Morsi and his group.

Brotherhood journalist Mohammed Naser issued an attack on Hamad bin Jassim following his statements, describing him as “slanderer”.

Naser said: “Sheik Hamad bin Jassim slanderer encouraged the Brotherhood to run in the elections, and as for the shops he spoke about, he knows very well which countries are of this size”, he said.

These statements infuriated the Brotherhood, as they launched a sharp attack on Hamad bin Jassim, and some of them went out to promote lies about Morsi, his group, and the intelligence of the country’s leadership, contrary to what was promoted by the former Prime Minister of Qatar; One Brotherhood member wrote that Bin Jassim was the mouthpiece of the Qatari government and regime, and his statements reveal Qatar’s abandonment of the group.

International observers and political Islam experts confirmed that these statements publicly revealed the abandonment of the Brotherhood by the Qatari regime, after the end of mutual interests and rapprochement with the Arab countries after the Al-Ula Agreement, the return of diplomatic relations, and the end of Doha’s interests from the Brotherhood and its exploitation in favor of black schemes against the Arab countries.

كيف يتحدث حمد بن جاسم @hamadjjalthani عن حكم مدني مزهر في #مصر اليوم مع أن السجون المصرية ماتزال مكتظة بآلاف المساجين السياسيين جلّهم من الإخوان المسلمين أصدقاء #قطر المخلصين؟
بدل أن يقول (الإخوان لا يصلحون لإدارة دكّان) كان أولى به أن يدعو لمصالحة وطنية على الأقل ويتطوع للوساطة.

They also see signs of a crisis between Qatar and the Brotherhood, which raises many questions about Qatar’s relationship with the Brotherhood in the coming period, with the worsening of the organization’s crises abroad and its search for alternative havens for Turkey, especially since these statements were not the first of their kind by a Qatari official; These statements were preceded by statements along with actual steps reflecting the abandonment of the Brotherhood, the most recent of which was the decision to expel the leaders of the second tier of the Brotherhood organization, to give them a temporary deadline to leave the country, and to move dozens of the leaders of the first and second tier of the Brotherhood elements out of the country.

This mutual struggle revealed that the isolation of the Brotherhood, the strengthening of internal differences that made it two heads or two, and the self-destruction it is experiencing, caused the breaking of the rules that previously condemned the principle of hearing and obedience, which proved the sayings that allies of yesterday may be today’s enemies.
