El-Mansuri (a doctor of medicine) emigrated to the UK in the 1970s, where he was one of the founders of IRW.
El-Banna also founded and chairs the Humanitarian Forum and the Muslim Charities Forum [1][2]
El-Banna was formerly a trustee of Muslim Aid, a London-based charity which was previously a “partner organization” of the Al-Salah Islamic Association. The U.S. government has officially designated Al-Salah a terrorist entity. A number of Bangladeshi commentators have accused Muslim Aid of funding the violent Islamist group Jamaat-e-Islami, while El-Banna was involved.
In an interview with Emel magazine, el-Banna expressed his admiration for Islamist figures Hassan al-Banna and Sayyed Qutb, the ideological founders of the Muslim Brotherhood.
Dr. El-Banna was awarded the Order of the British Empire by Queen Elizabeth II in 2004. In the same year Dr. El Banna also received Ibn Khaldun Award for Excellence in Promoting Understanding between Global Cultures and Faiths (UK).
So far, no obvious links to MB were found other than the connection with IRW.
