Here is an example of how ever some are to ensure that critical views on Jamaat-e-Islami do not find exposure.

The original note (below) Compare [2] and Talk:Umar_Khalid

Jamaat-e-Islami: How benign it is

Both Umar Khalid and his father have been associated with Jamaat-e-Islami.

In India Jamaat-e-Islami is a powerful organization (it runs 40 high schools and three junior colleges in Maharashtra alone^[1]). Most news reporters are not generally familiar with it, and don't know how it differs from other Islamic organizations.

It is an Islamist organization. Reporters and Wikipedia editors would benefit from reading the works of Parveen Swami ^[2] and Husain Haqqani, former ambassador of Pakistan to USA.

Consider these

From The Ideologies of South Asian Jihadi Groups by HUSAIN HAQQANI:^[3]

"Maududi also laid out a stage-by-stage strategy for Islamic revolution in his many speeches and writings. His first major book, Al-Jihad fil-Islam (Jihad in Islam), defined the various ways and means of struggle for the perfect Islamic state.

Jamaat-e-Islami members were organized in two militant groups, Al-Badr and Al-Shams, and were trained by the Pakistani army to carry out operations against Bangladesh nationalists seeking separation from Pakistan.

These links led to the organization’s close identification with the Islamizing military regime of General Ziaul Haq (1977-1988). Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan was directly involved in supporting the Afghan mujahideen operating out of Pakistan, maintaining close ties with Gulbeddin Hikmatyar’s Hizbe Islami (Islamic Party) and Burhanuddin Rabbani’s Jamiat-e-Islami (Islamic Society).

From 1989, Jamaat-e-Islami has actively participated in the militancy in Jammu and Kashmir with the full backing of Pakistan’s inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) and the Pakistan military. To maintain a distinction between Jamaat-e-Islami, the ideological-political group, and militant or terrorist out- fits, several jihad-specific organizations were created. The most prominent of these is the Hizbul Mujahideen (The Party of Holy Warriors).

Praveen Swami describes Jamaat-e-Islami and Zakir Naik as part of Jihadist network in India ^[4]

Jamaat-e-Islami Pak had organized riots against the Ahmadiyas in Pakistan. Maududi was convicted and given a death sentence, but was spared because of Saudi intervention. ^[5]

Organizing riots and burniong Buddhist temples in Bangladesh ^[6]

Jamaat-e-Islami Pak has shelterd noted Al Qaeda members, and has organized training of international terrorists.^[7]

Jamaat-e-Islami Bangaldesh leaders have been accused and convicted by organizing mass murders of Bengali intellectuals and Hindus in Bangladesh during its liberation. ^[8]

Islamist Jamaat-e-Islami member Two student sentenced to death for murdering Atheist Blogger ^[9]

SIMI in India was an offshoot of Jamaat-e-Islami Hind. Indian Mujahideen is thought to be connected to SIMI. see ^[10]

Jamaat-e-Islami chief announces Rs 100 crore reward for 'arresting' PM Modi June 2, 2015 ^[11]

Jamaat-e-Islami attacked and burned down the US embassy in Pakistan 1979 U.S. embassy burning in Islamabad. Ironic, because Maulana Maududi went to USA to seek treatment(died there). He specifically asked his followers there (who established Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA) in USA in his presence) to spare US.

Description of Party

Latest comment: 5 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

"Right wing" is defined by the Oxford American English dictionary as "conservative or reactionary". "Nationalist" is defined, by the same dictionary, as a person who advocates political independence for a country, or a person with strong patriotic feelings, especially one who believes in the superiority of their country over others. Another that should be considered is "Islamist": an advocate or supporter of Islamic militancy or fundamentalism (noun); relating to, advocating, or supporting Islamic militancy or fundamentalism: hardline Islamist groups (adjective). 5JVL9 (talk) 20:02, 28 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
