4. Ideology and Doctrine

• Ideology- Salafism
• Doctrine is based on five founding
principles:
1. iman (belief),
2. hijrah (emigration),
3. i’dad (preparation to struggle in the way
of God),
4. jihad (struggle in the way of Allah),
5. al wala wal bara (division of the world
into friends and enemies).
• JI’s ideology is influenced by al-Qaeda’s
political theology

5. Social, national, age, gender analysis of the participants

JI’s current membership isn’t known publicly, but was estimated in
2007 to range between 900 and several thousand members

6. “Myth”- story that cements the creation of this organization

• JI’s roots can be traced to Darul Islam, a radical anti-colonialist movement
in 1940s Indonesia.
• In 1985 small factions fled to Malaysia to eventually regroup and rebrand as
Jemaah Islamiyah
• JI leaders adopted principles of Darul Islam to maintain a low profile in order
to avoid government retaliation.
