Tanzeem-e-Islami () is a Pakistani Islamic organisation that advocates the implementation of the Sharia, Quran and Sunnah in the social, cultural, legal, political, and the economic spheres of life; and the "refutation of the misleading thoughts and philosophy of modernity".
The organization was formed by author and Islamic scholar Israr Ahmed in 1975 following his break with the Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) party in 1957, after the JI entered electoral politics in Pakistan.
