The Islamic Renaissance Party of Tajikistan is the only legally registered Islamist party in Central Asia. Like its Afghan Tajik counterpart, Jamiat-e-Islami, the party is organized based on the Muslim Brotherhood's model. The party was one of the groups that made up the United Tajik Opposition, an umbrella organization that fought against the forces of current Tajik President Emomali Rakhmon during the 1992-1997 Tajik civil war. Yet beyond a common enemy, the Islamic Renaissance Party of Tajikistan shared little else with the other groups of the United Tajik Opposition, such as the Democratic Party of Tajikistan and the Gami and Pamiri clans. With a reported membership of 40,000, the party is the second-largest political party in Tajikistan, but it is sharply limited in terms of policy-making. The Islamist party holds only two seats in parliament and does not hold any national-level Cabinet positions.
