The Ulema Party (U.P.) (full name "Party of Ulema leading the People towards Justice") is a political party in Kurum Ash-Sharqia. It was founded by Anas Gamal in 1708 AN. It is a radical conservative party advocating an Islamic theocracy.

In 1719 AN Mohammed-Amine Maes unsuccesfully challenged Anas Gamal's leadership, advocating an even more radical stance and condoning violence against dissenters. After Gamal's demise in 1731 AN, he did become the UP's leader.
