Shia Islamism information

Shia Islamism is the usage of Shia Islam in politics. Most study and reporting on Islamism has been focused on Sunni Islamist movements.^{[note 1]} Shia Islamism, a previously very small ideology, was boosted after the Iranian Revolution led by Ruhollah Khomeini, whose Shia Islamist policies became known as Khomeinism.^[2]^[3]^{[note 2]}

Though a minority of the world Muslim community, Twelver Shias form the majority of the population in the countries of Iran, Iraq, Bahrain, Azerbaijan,^[4] half the Muslims in Lebanon, and substantial minorities in Afghanistan, India, Kuwait, Pakistan, Qatar, Syria, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.^[5]

Islamism in general has been defined as a religious revivalist movement for a return to the original texts and the inspiration of the original believers of Islam, but one which requires Islam to be a "political system".^[6]^[7]^[8]^[9]^[10]
