History and establishment

edit

In November 2004, Islamic scholar Tauqeer Raza Khan felt that the All India Muslim Personal Law Board was not sufficiently representing the Barelwis and headed to establish a new and separate board to overcome this issue on 10 December 2004.[5][6] It was the second split from the AIMPLB, the first one being the All India Muslim Women Personal Law Board.[7] German scholar Mathias Rohe states that "the board represents the Barelwi school but is not visible to the public, and, is vehemently rejected by traditionalists."[8]

It was formed after Tauqeer was made a member of AIMPLB without asking his permission, as per the statement. Tauqeer accused AIMPLB members, they are the people who don't follow Shariah themselves and are a servant of the government only.[9]

Activism

edit

According to a 2021 report by the Siasat Daily, the AIMPLB (J) offered half a million Indian rupees for having Taslima Nasrin beheaded if she did not apologize.[10] The organisation has actively participated in Triple Talaq issue, Dharmsansad issue and Bhagwa Love Trap conspiracy theory cases.[11][12][13][14][15]
