Al-Haraka al-Islahiya al-Islamiya or Movement for Islamic Reform Arabic: حركة الإصلاح الإسلامي (also al-Haraka al-Islahiya (Reform Movement)) is a Shi'i protest group in Saudi Arabia active in the 1980s and 1990s. Vali Nasr includes the group as part of the "Shia revival" following the 1979 Iranian Revolution.[1] According to Robert G. Rabil, it was led by Sheikh Hassan al-Saffar who changed the name of his group to al-Haraka al-Islahiya in the 1990s.[2] In 1993, Shia dissidents in Saudi (if not al-Haraka al-Islahiya itself) gained some improvements in their conditions, under reforms by King Abdullah, but this "came to a screeching halt" in 2011 with the Arab Spring.[2]
