Front Pembela Islam (FPI) is an Indonesian Islamic organization founded in 1998. It aims to promote and defend Islamic values, often engaging in activities such as religious outreach, social services, and advocacy for Sharia law. The group is known for its hardline stance on various social issues, including morality and religious practices. FPI gained significant attention for its protests against perceived violations of Islamic principles, often targeting bars, nightclubs, and other establishments. While it has a substantial following, the organization has faced criticism and legal challenges due to its militant approach and involvement in violent incidents.
