"Germany's security authorities already classified Muslim Interactive as extremist. The group calls for a worldwide caliphate, which rejects the democratic order enshrined in Germany's Basic Law. Founded in 2020, authorities believe the group is affiliated with the Hizb ut-Tahrir (HuT) organization, which was banned in 2003 after promoting violence and the killing of Jewish people."
""Put delicately, this is a revolutionary political movement pursuing a fundamental upheaval of the ruling order, not only in the Muslim world, but worldwide," Andreas Jacobs, head of the division for societal cohesion at the Konrad Adenauer Foundation, told DW in 2024. The association is prolific on social media with substantial followers. Their video posts look professional and portray their movement's leaders as modern and eloquent."
Germany's security authorities have classified Muslim Interactive as extremist. The group advocates a worldwide caliphate that rejects the democratic order enshrined in Germany's Basic Law. Founded in 2020, the association is believed to be affiliated with Hizb ut-Tahrir, an organization banned in 2003 after promoting violence and the killing of Jewish people. Security analysts describe the movement as revolutionary and seeking fundamental upheaval beyond the Muslim world. The association maintains a prolific social media presence with professional videos that portray leaders as modern and eloquent. The group frames Muslims in Germany as discriminated against, a strategy that intensified after the October 7, 2023 Hamas-led attack and the Gaza war.
