Jamaat-e-Islami: How benign it is edit
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).

Description of Party edit
"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)
