The Bangladesh Islami Front (Bengali: বাংলাদেশ ইসলামী ফ্রন্ট) is an Islamist political party in Bangladesh.[2] In the 2001 parliamentary election, the party fielded 16 candidates. Together, they gathered 29,002 votes (0.05% of the national vote), but the party won no seats in the Jatiya Sangsad.[3] The party's student wing is Bangladesh Islami Chattra Sena.

History

The party was founded on 21 December 1990.

Alliance

Bangladesh Islami Front entered into the Jatiya Party-led Sammilita Jatiya Jote (United National Alliance) in 2017.[4]

Death of one of its Prominent Presidium Member

On 27 August 2014, Nurul Islam Farooqi, who was a presidium member of Islami Front, was murdered following an invasion of his home.[5] In August, 2014, Islami Chhatra Sena chief Muhammad Nurul Haq Chisty announced at a press meeting that a half-day strike across Bangladesh would be observed, and demanded for the arrest and trial of Farooqi's killer.[6][7] The student party formed a human chain on the Dhaka-Sylhet Highway's Ashuganj Goalchattor area on 25 August 2015, demanding an exceptional punishment for Farooqi's killer.[8]
