Tehreek-e-Jafaria (TJP) ("Movement for Shia Law") was a Shia militant group in Pakistan, which was founded in 1979 by Arif Hussain Hussaini. Its creation coincided with the enforcement of controversial Islamic laws by then President of Pakistan, General Mohammad Zia-ul-Haq. At the same time, 1979 Iranian Revolution in Shi'a Iran added extra confidence and comfort in the movement.
