The Muslim Brotherhood International Power Index (MBIPI) 2025
Published in February 2026 by TRENDS Research & Advisory (Abu Dhabi), The Muslim Brotherhood International Power Index (MBIPI) 2025 offers the first systematic, global measurement of the Brotherhood’s power on the international stage. Directed by Wael Saleh, a member of Pluriel’s coordination committee, with Patrice Brodeur and Hamad Al Hosani, the volume assesses the Muslim Brotherhood’s capacity to achieve its objectives, impose its will and shape regional and international dynamics.
Drawing on a battery of indicators, the index maps the movement’s influence country by country and offers a forward-looking reading of its trajectory. Available in English and in French (Indice de puissance internationale des Frères musulmans, IPIFM 2025), it is part of Wael Saleh’s work on contemporary political Islam.
