The article explains that the declining organizational presence of religious movements does not necessarily mean their influence has disappeared. Their norms may persist in socialization and everyday relationships, with individuals reproducing them without direct guidance. It compares the experience of the Juhayman group in 1979, which sought to bring reality into line with a fixed Mahdist vision, with subsequent institutional changes, including the 2016 reorganization of the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice. That reorganization reserved enforcement measures for other bodies, leaving the Commission responsible for preaching and reporting. The article concludes that understanding this transformation requires examining the meanings that have become socially entrenched and the role institutions play in legitimizing or changing them—not simply tracking the decline of organizations or the implementation of new rules.
