The Ummah’s Principles Alliance (Arabic: تجمع ثوابت الأمة) is a Salafi political bloc in Kuwait headed by Bader Al-Dahoum. It’s founded in 2003. Of the fifty elected members of National Assembly, two seats belong to the bloc.
History
The alliance was part of the opposition bloc elected on February 2012. After the annulment of the February 2012 session and the change of the electoral system, the alliance boycotted the following two elections on December 2012 and 2013. On 20 April 2016, they announced their intention to stop boycotting in the next election.[1] On the 2020 election, three members of the alliance, Mohammed Hayef al-Mutairi, Bader Al-Dahoum and Osama Al-Menawer, won seats in the National Assembly. On March 2021, Bader Al-Dahoum’s membership in parliament was annulled by the constitutional court.[2] The alliance’s efforts lead to the segregation between the two sexes in Kuwait University on 2023.[3][4]
