From the Protection of the Constitution Report 2010 shows that the HuT 's targeted efforts to recruit students at Hamburg schools for their club.

In the Arab countries, the Hizb ut-Tahrir is banned because it represents the existing power systems in the region in question and does not recognize as Islamic rulers. In Central Asia, especially in Uzbekistan, the organization has strong inflow, where she diplomatically, not militarily fighting against the government.
