On February 22, 2026, Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami chief Dr. Shafiqur Rahman posted a message on his verified Facebook page early Sunday morning, writing that the future Bangladesh would be one of justice and ending with the slogan 'Inquilab Zindabad'. The post quickly spread across social media, drawing attention on International Mother Language Day.

According to the report, Dr. Rahman’s post came in response to a statement made the previous day by State Minister for Power, Energy and Mineral Resources Iqbal Hasan Mahmud Tuku. The minister had said that to truly embrace the Bengali language, the slogan 'Inquilab Zindabad' should not continue, arguing that it had no connection with Bengali identity. His remarks triggered widespread discussion online.

Before Dr. Rahman’s post, several others, including Hasnat Abdullah, Nasiruddin Patwari, and Sarjis Alam, had shared similar messages echoing the same slogan. The issue has since become a focal point of debate on social media surrounding national identity and political expression.
