Tehrik-e-Jafaria Pakistan (T.J.P.) (Urdu: تحریکِ جعفریہ‎), that originated after splitting from Tehrik-e-Nifaz-e-Fiqh-e-Jafaria (Urdu: تحریکِ نفاذِ فقہ جعفریہ‎) which is being led by Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi. After being declared as proscribed by the Government of Pakistan on 14 January 2002, TJP started operating under the new name of Tehrik-e-Islami (Urdu: تحریک اسلامی‎) and Islami Tehrik (Urdu: اسلامی تحریک‎), is a Shia Muslim sectarian religious organization in Pakistan. It was originally formed in 1979 under the name Tehrik-e-Nifaz-e-Fiqh-e-Jafaria to resist anti-Shia laws (introduced by General Zia ul Haq during his Martial Law) by the late Mufti Jafar Hussain, the late Lieutenant Colonel Syed Fida Hussain Naqvi and others, and they effectively campaigned against Zia-ul-Haq by besieging the President's Secretariat, Islamabad for several days. They managed to get their demands met by the dictator. چار اور پانچ جولائی 1980 کو ہزاروں شیعہ مظاہرین نے زکوۃ و عشر آرڈیننس میں ترمیم کے لئے اسلام آباد سیکرٹیریٹ کے سامنے پرامن دھرنا دیا۔ کارِ سرکار مفلوج ہوگیا۔ حکومت نے زکوۃ کی کٹوتی نہ کرنے کا مطالبہ تسلیم کرلیا۔اسلام آباد اس طرح سے پہلے کبھی نہیں جھکا تھا۔
