Algerian Muslim Scouts
Algerian Muslim Scouts (Arabic: الكشافة الاسلامية الجزائرية) is the national Scouting association in Algeria. SMA has 24,750 members as of 2011

Encouraged by Oulémas reformists, the movement propagated
patriotic ideas, was guided by nationalist chiefs, and carried out many
demonstrations, like that of May 8, 1945 during which Bouzid Chaal, a
young scout, died. Many scouts then took part in the war of
independence, with the call of the moudjahidine.
Algeria became a member of the World Organization of the Scout Movement in 1963.
