abstract
  • Al-Qazwini was born in the city of Hofuf in 1949. In the late 1960's he moved to Iran where he studied at the University of Tehran where he was exposed to several prominent Iranian Islamists including Ruhollah Khomeini. Returning to Qatif in the early 1970's Al-Qazwini became a critic of Qatifi leader Mustafa al-Karim criticising his secular policies. The outbreak of the Qatifi Civil War saw Al-Qazwini help create the Union of Islamic Revolutionary Mujahideen, a Shia nationalist militia group that allied itself with the Qatifi government against the Islamic Liberation Army. Following the end of the civil war Al-Qazwini became a prominent figure within the Islamist community of Qatif. During the Palm Revolution Al-Qazwini expanded the Union of Islamic Revolutionary Mujahideen until in became a coalition of Qatifi Shia Islamist groups, that soon became the main opposition force in Qatif. In the 2015 presidential elections Al-Qazwini was the Mujahideen's candidate, where he won 52% of the national vote in the runoff elections beating incumbent president Mohammed Mujawar. Al-Qazwini has been identified as being a hardliner in Islamist circles, but has been pushed to adopt centrist and moderate positions since becoming President. As the Cabinet is mainly made up of Ba'athists Al-Qazwini has been forced to work within a system of cohabitation wherein he handles foreign policy and national security whilst the Ba'athist cabinet handles domestic policy. In the summer of 2016 political deadlock with the Ba'athist cabinet led to Al-Qazwini to be overthrown in a military coup by pro-Ba'athists within the Ministry of the Interior.
