The Taliban are a group of Islamic students led by Islamic clerics (mullahs) that ruled over 90% of Afghanistan from 1996 to 2001. Currently, they wish to topple the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan.

Talib is an Arabic word meaning "one who is seeking" but the word has evolved to mean "someone who is seeking religious knowledge."[1]
