Rashid Rida (1865-1935) is famous as a leader of Salafiyya Movement and the editor of his journal, al-Manar. In this paper, I have attempted to elucidate his view on jama'a. Ride expected Muslim's group called jama'a as true leaders of Islamic Community (umma). Jama'a is defined by him as ulu al-amr (possesors of authority), ahl al-hall wa'l-'aqd (electors of caliph) and ahl al-ijma' al-muta' (people whose consensus is considered as compulsive to umma).
Then I examined Ride's efforts to form organizations for his Islamic Reform Movement. These efforts are represented in his plans for Jam'iyya al-da'wa wa'l-irshad (Society of Propaganda and Guidance) and Hizb al-islah al-islami al-mu'tadil (Moderate Islamic Reform Party).
