- Ahle Sunnat Wal Jama'at most commonly refers to the Sunni branch of Islam generally. It is an Urdu variation of the equivalent Arabic term "Ahl as-Sunnah wa’l-Jamā‘ah" which literally translates as "People of the Tradition and the Congregation". Further information: Sunni Islam In South Asia, the term may additionally have more specific, and contested, meanings: It is sometimes used by Barelvis to refer exclusively to the Barelvi movement of Hanafi Sunni Islam in South Asia, who regard themselves as the Ahlus Sunnat or Jamaat Ahle Sunnat. It is also the name under which the sectarian organization Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistan currently operates since it was banned by the government in Pakistan. It can be used (according to some incorrectly) to refer to those Sunnis who adhere to taqlid ("imitation") in matters of fiqh and follow the four orthodox Sunni schools, in opposition to the Ahl-e-Hadith or Salafis who reject taqlid.
