Early life and education
Hussein was born on 8 March 1911.[1] His father, Mahmoud Hussein, was a civil servant at the Ministry of Finance. The family was from Kafr El Battikh near Damietta and had lands in Lower Egypt.[1]
Hussein received religious education and a degree in law.[2][3]
Career and political activities
Hussein started a magazine entitled Al Sarkha (Шаблон:Lang-ar) in which he published a program of his political group, "Society of the Free Youth, Supporters of the Treaty", endorsing Prime Minister Mohamed Mahmoud's negotitaions with the British.[1][3][4] The group included the nationalist Egyptian figures led by Hussein's friend Fathi Radwan.[5] The society's slogan was "God, Fatherland and the King", and aimed at reviving the Egyptian nationalism, especially after Egypt experienced negative outcomes of the economic crisis in 1929.[1] In late 1931, a committee of students headed by Ahmad Hussein initiated the Piastre Plan to raise funds to improve the industry in the country.[1] They managed to collect the funds and employed them to set up a fez factory.[1] In his writings in Al-Sarkha Hussein harshly criticized Western democracy and praised Fascism and Nazism supporting the implementation of these ideologies in addition to Sharia rule in Egypt.[3]
The Society of the Free Youth, Supporters of the Treaty was reestablished as a political party, Young Egypt, on 21 October 1933.[4][5] The party was modeled on the Italian National Fascist Party.[6] Hussein sent a letter to Adolf Hitler and asked him to convert to Islam.[3] Hussein was arrested in July 1941 due to his extreme nationalist activities.[2] He escaped while he was being treated at a hospital, but in November 1942 he surrendered himself to the police.[2] In 1944 he was released from prison.[2] In July 1946 Hussein was again arrested with other Young Egypt party members following the headline of the party newspaper, Al-Ishtrakia, as "Revolt, Revolt, Revolt!"[7] They were freed on bail soon.[2]
Hussein renamed his party as the Egyptian Social Democratic Party in the late 1940s, and later it was renamed as the National Islamic Party.[2] In the 1950s his brother and a member of the Young Egypt party, Adel Hussein, joined a communist party, namely Haditu.[8]
Later life and death
Hussein had a stroke in 1969 and retired from public life.[9] He died at age 71 on 27 September 1982 after he had been hospitalized because of heart problems.[9]
