For many Tunisians, hopes for change have since been dashed, with some key sectors deteriorating even further.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Founded clandestinely in 1972, \u201cEnnahda\u201d evolved from a banned religious movement under presidents Habib Bourguiba and Zine El Abidine Ben Ali into a political party after 2011. While publicly declaring a separation between religious and political activity, it maintained tacit ties with the international Muslim Brotherhood, evident in the attendance of its leaders at global Brotherhood gatherings, particularly after the fall of Egypt\u2019s Muslim Brotherhood government in 2013.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Also read: <a href=\"https:\/\/963media.com\/en\/31\/08\/2025\/libya-the-age-of-armed-chaos\/#\">Libya: The Age of Armed Chaos<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>From Revolution to Decline<\/b><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Political analyst Bassel Torjeman argues that, like other Islamist parties that emerged after the Arab Spring, Ennahda faced the reality that it neither embraced democracy nor accepted the peaceful transfer of power.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He told <\/span><b>+963<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that the movement\u2019s rise was part of a broader regional arrangement to promote Islamist rule after the Arab uprisings, but its eventual collapse was the natural outcome of its \u201cerrors and missteps\u201d following Ben Ali\u2019s ouster.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ennahda\u2019s refusal to rotate leadership, Torjeman added, was a key internal flaw. The long tenure of its leader, Rached Ghannouchi, under a culture of \u201cpledging allegiance,\u201d weakened the party\u2019s credibility and eroded trust among its base.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a result, many supporters abandoned the party, disillusioned by the gap between its declared principles and its governance record.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Electoral Decline<\/b><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ennahda\u2019s political setbacks were visible at the ballot box in Tunisia\u2019s first post-revolutionary parliamentary election in 2011. The party secured 89 out of 217 seats, dominating the Constituent Assembly and raising high hopes among its followers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But by 2014, its tally dropped to 69 seats, placing it second behind Nidaa Toune Party with 85. By 2019, Ennahda\u2019s share fell further to just 52 seats, signaling a steady erosion of its popular base and political influence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mohamed Hnid, professor at the Sorbonne University in Paris, told <\/span><b>+963<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that Ennahda today is in a state of \u201chibernation\u201d, paralysed by the arrests or prosecutions of many of its leaders, coupled with its failure to manage Tunisia\u2019s fragile democratic transition after 2011.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cEnnahda long survived repression as an opposition group, but governing was different,\u201d he explained. \u201cAs part of the ruling system, its mismanagement alienated the public and weakened its grassroots.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hnid noted that some of the harshest criticism of Ennahda now comes from its own former leaders, pointing to its inability to pass key legislation such as the Constitutional Court law and transitional justice measures.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The movement\u2019s future, he added, remains uncertain. Without serious internal reforms or a renewed message, Ennahda faces little chance of regaining its lost influence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Also read:<a href=\"https:\/\/963media.com\/en\/31\/08\/2025\/the-fall-of-egypts-muslim-brotherhood-from-power-to-proscription\/#\"> The Fall of Egypt\u2019s Muslim Brotherhood: From Power to Proscription<\/a><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Legal and Political Challenges<\/b><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ennahda\u2019s troubles have deepened with mounting legal cases.
