Abstract [en]

The article has a history of religions approach, and analyzes the counter-narrative of Hizb ut-Tahrir, which is a global political Islamist group which aims to establish a universal caliphate. It is a vocal radical radical group, rejecting the use of violence. The group is against democracy, secularization and liberal values, and promotes a return to true Islam, which obliges Muslims to establish a caliphate, ruled by divine will. The analysis of the ideology will contextualize it within Islamic theology and other current interpretative Islamic currents that dominate, with the aim of explaining why they are banned in several countries.
