Izala Society, formally ''Jama’at Izalat al Bid’a Wa Iqamat as Sunna'' (Society of Removal of Innovation and Re-establishment of the Sunna), also called JIBWIS, is an Islamic movement originally established in Northern Nigeria to fight what it sees as the ''bid’a'', (innovation), practiced by the Sufi brotherhoods. It is one of the largest Islamic societies in Nigeria, Chad, Niger, and Cameroon. Izala was established 1978 in Jos, Nigeria by Sheikh Ismaila Idris (1937-2000),〔 "in reaction to the Sufi brotherhoods", specifically the Qadiri and Tijan Sufi orders. According to Ramzi Amara,
The group has been called a salafist organization "that embraces a legalist and scripture centered understanding of Islam".〔 http://www.strategicstudiesinstitute.army.mil/pdffiles/pub989.pdf 〕 David Commins has described it as the fruit of missionary work by the Saudi Arabian funded and led World Muslim League.〔emblem of Saudi Arabia and (emblem of Izala ) (upper left corner)〕 "Essential texts" for members of the Izala Society are "Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab's treatise of God's unity and commentaries by his grandsons". Ibn Abd al-Wahhab was the founder of the Wahhabi mission, the official Islamic interpretation of Saudi Arabia. He saw Sufism as rife with idolatry (''shirk''). The Izala Society has been labeled as infidels by their fellow Salafist group, Boko Haram, due to their willingness to work with the Nigerian government.〔(New York Times: "Nigeria’s Internal Struggles" By TOLU OGUNLESI ) March 23, 2015〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Izala Society」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
