Renaissance Party (Arabic: Hizb al-Nahda, also Hizb Ennahda; French: Parti de la Renaissance) is an un-authorized islamist opposition political party in Tunisia. Originally known as Islamic Action, the party changed its name to Movement of the Islamic Tendency, and then in 1989 Hizb al-Nahda.[1] Although traditionally shaped by the thinking of Sayyid Qutb and Maududi, starting in the 1980s they began to be described as moderate Islamist. They advocated democracy and a "Tunisian" form of Islamism which recognized political pluralism. They also discussed a "dialogue" with the West. These statements should not be misconstrued as they reject Western notions of liberal democracy and believe in an essentially Islamic constitution. Critics charge that one of their main leaders, named Rashid Al-Ghannushi, had a history of violence yet in courts he was accused by the ruling party of organizing a non authorized political party. Others say he supports any form multi-party democracy that offers a minimum of freedom for his party and followers. Al Nahda a party published the banned newspaper Al-Fajr. The editor of Al Fajr, Hamadi Jebali, was sentenced to sixteen years imprisonment in 1992 for membership of the un-authorized organisation and for "aggression with the intention of changing the nature of the state". Al Nahda members were allowed to stand in the 1989 elections but the movement was banned in 1991. The Arabic language television station El Zeitouna is believed to be connected with Al Nahda.
History
The most important components of the identity card of the Islamic Renaissance Movement of Tunisia : First : the founding statement on the occasion of the first movement in the press on June 6, 1981 in the wake of the constituent body, the first extraordinary spring 81. Founding text of the statement : view : witness the Islamic world and our part of the ugliest alienation, exile and reconciliation on the same date since mediator and causes degradation felt in a nation and propel them to abandon the task of leadership and radiation sometimes for the benefit of West colonist and another for the benefit of minorities internal dominating separated from assets and Sademet aspirations of their peoples. It was targeted first stages throughout this whole Islam is the center of our personality backbone of our civilization and have combined to isolate gradually slow and sometimes boldly traveled from locations guidance and the effective functioning of our reality. Despite emerge is a determining factor in the decision of the highlights of our civilization and our jihad to expel the imperialists have become today, or almost a symbol beset by risks culturally, morally and politically by the fact that in the contemporary stage and the recent special negligence and assault on values and institutions and to men. In addition to these facts civilization involving our country with the rest of the Islamic world knew Tunisia in the late 1950s and throughout the 1960s and 1970s Ashrete Although access to a document marked Independence situations privacy blockage and outbursts of social conflict and disruption of the overall growth. This situation has devoted a result of unilateral arrogance political direction (the ruling Constitutional), and include it escalating towards hegemony on the authorities, institutions and mass organizations in terms of the result improvised choices, social and economic volatility linked to the interests and international inconsistent with our national interests on the other hand. In this climate Islamic trend emerged in Tunis in the early 1970s after it had a presence and the reasons for each confirmed necessity has contributed this direction from the army in the rehabilitation of Islam ideology, culture, manners and rehabilitation of the mosque also contributed to the revitalization of cultural and political life had been admitted for the first time in a new direction hailed identity and awareness and the interest of multilateralism Petjsimh realistic. The trend across the Islamic through his activities and his positions on many Althammeh same nation and embody the hopes and aspirations Valteft around broad sectors of the disadvantaged, youth, intellectuals and the rapid growth tends to the attention of observers and monitors strong political systems at home and abroad. Despite his sober sense to find the most effective ways to evolve and change this trend have been subjected to a series of false charges and malicious propaganda campaigns against organized by the ruling power, the media official and semi-official campaigns end of this assault arbitrarily and information media in order to prevent him from reporting his voice and evolved after that to most forms introduced to oppress its trials and intensified its members against prosecutions and investigations and opened to youth prisons and detention camps where beatings, torture and humiliation. The reasons for the continued failure of the political, economic and cultural role in our society that entrenches the Islamists have their project to their Lord, national and humanity in their need to continue and develop in order to liberate the country and by the actual foundations of Islam fair in light of its narrow. It argued that this is a matter involving religion in the world of politics and that the entrance to a monopoly of the Islamic character and thus deny to others. That this understanding as well as the fact that it reflects the perception church intrusive to the original culture devoted continuity "modern" to the reality that existed in the historic loss of our nation. That "trend Islamic movement" does not present itself as a formal name of Islam in Tunisia nor covet days in attributing this title to it with the approval of the right of all Tunisians sincere in dealing with the official religion of the right build perception of Islam is so comprehensive that is the ideological ground that stems from the different visions of intellectual and political choices, economic and social factors that determine the identity of the movement and seized its strategic position and situational. In this sense the direction the Islamic movement and clear boundaries specific responsibility, but bound by all kinds of movements and positions that might emerge from here and there but what is to be formally adopted Whatever brought the owners of these moves on themselves Braka Piety and raised the flag of Islam. Confirming this situation one hand and evenly with the enormity of the task and the requirements phase on the other hand, it must be on the Islamists to enter new phase of work and organization allowed to compile energies and awareness, education and employment in the service of our people and our nation must work to be elaborated within the objectives are secured means of structures clear and leaders represented. That trend Islamic movement that prevented them from Muslim constituencies broad conditions of oppression and terrorism to be hoped that the contribution rally deeper and more comprehensive in the future.
