NO. These two organizations share an allegiance to the political doctrines of Islamism (that Islamic Law should be national law), which link back to the same individuals in the mid-20th century like Hassan al-Banna, Sayyed Qutb, and al-Maududi. So, they are ideologically similar, even though Hamas is nationalist and al-Qaeda is internationalist in their Islamist orientations. However, these two organizations have different origins. Hamas derived from the Palestinian branch of the Muslim Brotherhood as this branch became more militant to fill in the breach created by the Fatah's consistent failure to make inroads for the Palestinians. Al-Qaeda formed as an offshoot of the Afghan Mujahedin after the conclusion of hostilities in the Soviet War in Afghanistan.
