Senior leader of Islami Andolon Bangladesh, Mufti Syed Muhammad Faizul Karim, said the country is now split into two ideological camps—those who support Islam and those who support “American-style democracy.” He emphasized that true governance will only come through Islamic values and claimed that Islam will eventually come to power in Bangladesh. Karim also defended his party from allegations of aligning with the ruling Awami League, saying it never participated in any “questionable election” or visited the Prime Minister’s office, unlike BNP.
