Religious doctrine kept Algerian nationalism alive under French rule.
Evidence
Over the past century of French rule, French education and French culture, Muslim scholars consider that it was the religious doctrine which, more than anything, had kept alight the fires of nationalism in Algeria, and — although they were not the first in the field — it was probably the Ulema (founded in 1931) that provided the nationalists with their first momentum. — Horne, Alistair, A Savage War of Peace- Algeria 1954-1962, 108
