Abstract
This paper attempts to give brief introduction to the concept of ideology
and its role in shaping society. The main purpose of this paper is to
analyze critically the traditionalist’s ideology. An attempt has been
made to provide the historical background of the traditionalists. The
paper also describes the ‘traditionalist model of state’ and the revival
of traditional Islam. The paper has divided the traditionalists into three
main categories i.e. Deobandis, Tablighi jamaat and the Taliban. An
attempt has also been made to study their belief system (aqaaids), social
and political agendas, and their views regarding women’s Rights,
minority issues, and welfare activities. The paper deals each group of
traditionalists separately.
