What is Yusufiya, and how does it relate to Boko Haram?
What will be an ideal response?
The ideology behind Boko Haram predates the actual creation of the group by nearly two decades. It was formed in 1995 when a number of Nigerian Salafis grew disgruntled with ideas from secular education that seemed to contradict the Quran. It morphed into a formal movement under the leadership of Mohammed Yusuf in 2003 . An anti-intellectual who rejected modernity and science, Yusuf urged his young followers to violently reject all things "un-Islamic.". They took up his call and embraced his leadership. Followers began to refer to themselves as Yusufiya.
