Rashid Rida was a Salafist Islamic scholar who called for the revival of the study of hadith and supported the idea of a Islamic state.[29] He believed that reform was needed to save Muslims from Sufism and start a Islamic revival.[30] He supported the idea of a armed jihad in the Muslim world against imperialists.[31] During the 1900s, Rida started to be influenced by Wahhabism and Ahl-i Hadith and started to follow a more conservative interpretation of Salafism.[32][33][34][35][36]
