Islam4UK was a radical Islamist group that operated in the United Kingdom. The group was proscribed as a terrorist organisation under the UK's counterterrorism laws on 14 January 2010. Before its proscription it was led by Anjem Choudary.
On its website, Islam4UK described itself as having "been established by sincere Muslims as a platform to propagate the supreme Islamic ideology within the United Kingdom as a divine alternative to man-made law" to "convince the British public about the superiority of Islam, thereby changing public opinion in favour of Islam in order to transfer the authority and power to the Muslims in order to implement the Sharia (in Britain)".
