“…Benefiting from liberal freedoms influenced the way in which Salafis in Tunisia thought about their role in society and while their rhetorical radicalism did not diminish and their criticism of democracy and the political system did not subside, the vast majority of AST could not justify widespread violence against an infidel state because that very state allowed them to organise and proselytise freely. The combination of self-serving interests and genuine theological discussions about the actual meaning of jihad under the influence of scholars such as al Maqdisi (Wagemakers 2009) led AST, for a period, on the path of what might be defined as democratic learning. However, many within AST understood the situation as provisional and thought that new state structures at war against Islam would inevitably resurface at some stage.…”

The article charts the rise of the jihadi Salafi movement in Tunisia during the transitional period and analyses the way in which the national attempt to construct a more liberal and democratic system influenced its internal dynamics and debate. It highlights in particular how democratic mechanisms and liberal norms being put in place in Tunisia impacted on the movement and how then this was reflected in its interactions with the other social and political actors in the system. The unique Tunisian environment in which democratic mechanisms and individual liberal freedoms were introduced immediately after the revolution led the jihadi Salafi movement to operate through contradictory behaviour and actions in a process of what can be called 'stop-start' democratic learning, which ultimately failed. The novelty of the political arrangements was beneficial to jihadi Salafism initially, as the new liberal environment allowed it to proselytise and organise in the open while railing against democracy and liberalism. In doing so they unwillingly contributed to strengthen the consensus of political actors on the necessity to build a democratic system. However, under the weight of this contradictory attitude, the movement ended up threatening the transition and failed to integrate.

“…Forskningslitteraturen om salafisme har desuden fokuseret meget på teologi og enkeltpersoner (Wagemakers 2009; Meleagrou-Hitchens 2011; Nesser 2013; Hegghammer 2020), imens der generelt har manglet forskning i de sociale strukturer (Sedgwick 2012) og om "salafism-in-context" (Belhaj 2020) i Europa. Der har godt nok vaeret forsket i egentlige salafi-moskéer (Shavit & Sprengler 2021), i sammenhaengen mellem online jihadi-salafisme og offline salafi-organisationer og moskéer (Jacobsen 2016; Bangstad & Linge 2015) samt i, hvordan "almindelige" muslimer ser på ekstremisme, der i praksis ofte forbindes med jihadi-salafistiske organisationer som al-Qaeda og Islamisk Stat (Sandberg 2018).…”

Selvom den akademiske såvel som den offentlige og politiske interesse for salafisme er i vækst i disse år, mangler der fortsat studier af, hvordan salafisme indgår i bredere muslimske kontekster, herunder moskéer. Af en række forskellige årsager var teologiske positioner – og dermed salafisme – ikke et integreret element i den seneste danske kortlægning af moskéer fra 2017 (Kühle & Larsen 2017; Kühle & Larsen 2019). I denne artikel reflekterer vi over, hvordan kortlægningen alligevel kan bidrage til en mere nuanceret forståelse af salafisme i Danmark, samt fremlægger en model for forskellige typer af relationer mellem moskéer og salafisme. Modellen bruges dernæst til at drøfte, hvordan en fremtidig undersøgelse af salafistiske miljøers tilknytning til og brug af moskéer kunne tage sig ud. Artiklen diskuterer således både forståelsen af salafisme i en dansk/europæisk kontekst og de metodiske muligheder for en sådan konceptualisering.

“…Maqdisi estudou no Iraque durante a adolescência e também concluiu a faculdade de ciências, onde teve contato com a irmandade Muçulmana. Maqdisi, assim como Abdullah Azzam, foi também um grande influenciador de bin Laden e mentor espiritual de Zarqawi, que foi um dos líderes do movimento DAESH (Estado Islâmico), como alega Wagemakers (2009).…”

O presente artigo pretende mostrar as ideias e acontecimentos que serviram de base ao líder da Al-Qaeda Osama bin Laden. Através da Escola Hanbali e das Reformas no mundo islâmico, surgiram teóricos que são peças fundamentais para entender os desdobramentos de grupos como a Al-Qaeda. Dessa forma, o artigo se debruça sobre os aspectos históricos e religiosos que perpassam esse meio. Através das obras do teórico Sayyid Qutb, faz-se uma abordagem a respeito do conceito de jihad, sobre o seu significado e como a questão é abordada pela Al-Qaeda.
