The Islamic State of Afghanistan ( Pashtun دافغانستان اسلامی دولت, Persian دولت اسلامی افغانستان) was proclaimed in Kabul on April 28, 1992 by an interim government led by Sibghatullāh Mujaddidi .
The structure of the state was negotiated by the leaders of the anti-Soviet resistance groups, supported by the Partscham faction of the Communist Party, and formalized in the Peshawar Agreement on April 26, 1992 .
According to William Maley, the new entity did not meet the characteristics of a state due to the extensive collapse of state structures in Afghanistan after the end of the government led by Mohammed Najibullāh . However, until the establishment of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan at the end of 2001, the Islamic State of Afghanistan was the internationally recognized government of Afghanistan with its seat at the United Nations. The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan of the Taliban was only recognized by Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
