Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami Assistant Secretary General Advocate Ehsanul Mahbub Zubair has stated that there is no ideology called 'Mawdudibad' in the world. In a statement sent to the media, he said the term was a narrative created by certain groups to oppose Jamaat. Zubair made the remarks while condemning a national daily’s editorial titled 'Education sector must be freed from Jamaat', calling it baseless and politically motivated.

He argued that Jamaat-e-Islami follows the true teachings and spirit of Islam and encourages its members to adhere to Islamic principles. Zubair criticized the newspaper for acting as a vanguard for specific interests instead of maintaining editorial neutrality. He said Jamaat believes in a welfare-oriented education system and has always worked to support and advise the education sector.

Zubair further stated that Jamaat respects followers of all Islamic schools of thought and rejects any attempt to create division or hostility among them. He emphasized that educational institutions operate under official administrative and ministerial guidance, leaving no room for imposing any particular ideology.
