It aims at providing an overview of the groups themselves and the historical and political context in which they have come into being. By looking at the historical and political climate in which these groups have developed the study looks at the groups and their infrastructure, and questions to what degree the groups have moved from a local to a more global agenda. The Kashmiri conflict offers a case study in which there seem to be clear indications that foreign (both Pakistani and global jihadists) involvement has changed the focus away from the initial independence struggle. In the Pakistani context, the study looks at the various shia- and sunni sectarian groups, as well as the radical Islamic groups that have come to be more active in the recent few years. A more extreme climate can be seen arguably due to two factors: Firstly the international influence of foreign fighters due to Pakistan in many ways being the back-yard to the Afghani Jihad and the resulting influence on the country. Secondly, a historically lenient attitude of different Pakistani governments has meant that a number of radical Islamist groups have flourished. The influence of foreign elements on these groups can be seen with regards to membership, weapons, tactics and ideology. A main argument of the study is therefore that the groups have become more global, but it is the local, political context and climate that has made this shift possible. 9) DATE AUTHORIZED BY POSITION

RADIKAL ISLAMISME I PAKISTAN OG KASHMIR - fra lokal til global jihad? 1 INTRODUKSJON1 At one time Pakistan had become a shelter for a hodge-podge of foreign militant groups mixed with our own religious and sectarian extremism (…) Now we are acting against them, very actively. Previously nobody had the courage to do that (…) We are eliminating masterminds.2 President Musharraf, Rawalpindi, 4.august 2004 If Musharraf stands for enlightened moderation in a fight for his life and for the life of his country, the United States should be willing to make hard choices too, and make the difficult long-term commitment to the future of Pakistan. Sustaining the current scale of aid to Pakistan, the United States should support Pakistan’s government in its struggle against extremists with a comprehensive effort that extends from military aid to support for better education,

  • Pakistan 2019 International Religious Freedom Report
    PAKISTAN 2019 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary The constitution establishes Islam as the state religion and requires all provisions of the law to be consistent with Islam. The constitution states, “Subject to law, public order, and morality, every citizen shall have the right to profess, practice, and propagate his religion.” It also states, “A person of the Qadiani group or the Lahori group (who call themselves Ahmadis), is a non-Muslim.” The courts continued to enforce blasphemy laws, punishment for which ranges from life in prison to execution for a range of charges, including “defiling the Prophet Muhammad.” According to civil society reports, there were at least 84 individuals imprisoned on blasphemy charges, at least 29 of whom had received death sentences, as compared with 77 and 28, respectively, in 2018. The government has never executed anyone specifically for blasphemy. According to data provided by nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), police registered new blasphemy cases against at least 10 individuals. Christian advocacy organizations and media outlets stated that four Christians were tortured or mistreated by police in August and September, resulting in the death of one of them. On January 29, the Supreme Court upheld its 2018 judgment overturning the conviction of Asia Bibi, a Christian woman sentenced to death for blasphemy in 2010. Bibi left the country on May 7, after death threats made it unsafe for her to remain. On September 25, the Supreme Court overturned the conviction of a man who had spent 18 years in prison for blasphemy. On December 21, a Multan court sentenced English literature lecturer Junaid Hafeez to death for insulting the Prophet Muhammad after he had spent nearly seven years awaiting trial and verdict.

  • Jehad of Maulvi Fazal Elahi
    Pakistan Vol. 50, 2014 Annual Research Journal FREEDOM STRUGGLE IN COLONIAL INDIA: JEHAD OF MAULVI FAZAL ELAHI Dr. Zahid Shah ∗∗∗ Prof. Dr. Jehanzeb Khalil ∗∗∗∗∗∗ Dr. Ayaz ∗∗∗∗∗∗∗∗ Abstract British rule in India in nineteenth and twentieth centuries was resisted by the followers of Sayyid Ahmad Shaheed in the name of Jehad. Seeking freedom from British domination, they based themselves in Tribal Area now called FATA of Pakistan and continued to amass men and matter from India surreptitiously. Fazal Elahi, one of the adherents of the group, initially collected funds and recruits and finally assumed leadership responsibilities at Chamarkand (Bajaur). His struggle against the British tells the tale of Jehadi activities of that time. This article describes as to how he turned a Mujahid and how he struggled against an imperial power. Key Words : Jehad , religiosity, fighting, sufferings, politics. Introduction Jehad , a Quranic word, connotes a selfless struggle in the way of Allah, the Almighty, on the side of virtue and against evil. The word has been interpreted differently by different groups in the annals of Muslims, yet a religious touch has always been there. The Sikh rule in Punjab in early nineteenth century is known for enslavement, tyranny and oppression on Muslim population. The religious elite of the time drawn chiefly from the Madrasa of Shah Waliullah of Delhi launched a Jehad Movement under the leadership of Sayyid Ahmad of Rai Bareli (India) with the object to liberate Muslims from Sikh atrocities. Fighting against the Sikhs, Sayyid Ahmad received martyrdom at Balakot (Hazara) in 1831. The Sikhs in Punjab were succeeded by the British in 1849.
