Abstract :
The Taliban movement, which became the dominant current in Afghanistan, is considered by the media and writers to be a movement with purely religious roots. Many of the Taliban's beliefs are compatible with Wahhabism, and in fact, "Wahhabism" verbally has the largest contribution to its formation. The thinking of this movement is in charge, basically Wahhabism and Ibn Taymiyyah, who had the greatest influence on the consistency of the Taliban's thinking They had based their principles of thinking on the basis of fiqh and theology of Ahmad bin Hanbal, and the intellectual teachings of Imam Ahmad and Ibn Taymiyyah and of course Muhammad bin Abdul Wahab have been injected into the intellectual and theoretical foundations of the Taliban in the form of Wahhabism, apparently the Hanafi Taliban jurisprudence. In principle, the Taliban are intellectually more closely related to Hanbali than to the Hanafis. The ideological reaction and stagnation of the Taliban is more compatible with the Hanbali religion than with the Hanafi religion, which included judgment and analogy in its school of thought.The scientific analysis of the Taliban's Islamization and the historical course of their religious and theological views is one of the important goals of this research, considering the influence of the Taliban movement in the field of intellectual, political and cultural issues in the region and the Islamic world, as well as the importance of the developments in Afghanistan as a neighboring country of Iran.
