Jamiat Ahle Hadith (JA) (Urdu:جمیعت اہلحدیث یا جمیعت اہل حدیث English: Assembly of followers of the Sayings of the prophet) is a religio-political party in Pakistan promoting the Ahle Hadees religious movement. Unlike unlike similar Islamic groups it opposed government involvement in affairs of sharia law.[1] Their leader, Ehsan Elahi Zaheer, was assassinated in 1987 and as of 2014 the party is led by Professor Sajid Mir.[2]
The party was part of the Islamic fundamentalist Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal, alliance that won 11.3 percent of the popular vote in the 2002 legislative elections, but has since folded. It is linked to the Ahl al-Hadith movement, and receives support from Wahhabis in Saudi Arabia.[citation needed]
