Political Islam is seen by some as any interpretation of Islam as a source of political identity and action.[1] It can refer to a wide range of individuals or groups who advocate the formation of state and society according to their understanding of Islamic principles. It may also refer to use of Islam as a source of political positions and concepts.[2][3] Not all forms of political activity by Muslims are discussed under the rubric of political Islam, Political Islam can represent one aspect of the Islamic revival that began in the 20th century.[1] Most academic authors use the term Islamism to describe the same phenomenon or use the two terms interchangeably.[1] There are new attempts to distinguish between Islamism as religiously based political movements and political Islam as a national modern understanding of Islam shared by secular and Islamist actors.[4]
