Islamic fundamentalism

Islamic fundamentalism refers to a strict and literal interpretation of Islamic teachings and texts, often reacting against modernity and cultural changes. Fundamentalists believe in returning to what they see as the true principles of Islam, seeking to implement their interpretation of Islamic law (Sharia) in political and social life. This movement can lead to a desire for political power and can sometimes result in extremism or violence. It's important to note that not all Muslims share these views, and fundamentalism represents a specific, often radical segment within the broader Islamic community.
