Jamaat-e-Islami

Islamist political party in Pakistan

Pakistani militant organization

Jamaat-e-Islami is an Islamist movement founded in 1941 in British India by the author of Tafhim-ul-Quran, Syed Abul Ala Maududi, who developed a conception of "theo-democracy", whereby a state operates in full accordance with Islamic law in all areas of life, and is ruled by the entire Muslim community. While its founding branch in Pakistan has been labelled fundamental, the Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami remains politically dominant, serving as the country’s main opposition party and previously holding ministerial positions through coalition governments.
