Malakand revolt was a Islamist Jihadist insurrection in Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa region by Tehreek-e-Nafaz-e-Shariat-e-Mohammadi under the command of Sufi Muhammad in Malakand Division on the basis of a demand for Sharia law. Multiple areas were captured by the TNSM militants. The uprising was quashed by the Pakistan government and armed forces resulting in militant-occupied areas being captured and a peace deal being signed.

It is regarded as the first ever jihadist uprising in Pakistan with the sole purpose being the establishment of TNSM's interpretation of Islamic Sharia.
