According to Webster's dictionary 'fundamentalism' was a movement in
American Protestanism that arose in the earlier part of the 20th century. It was a reaction to modernism, and stressed the infallibility of The Bible, not only in matters of faith and morals but also as a literal historical record. It stressed on belief in the Bible as the literal word of God. Thus fundamentalism was a word initially used for a group of Christians who believed that the Bible was the verbatim word of God without any errors and mistakes.
According to the Oxford dictionary 'fundamentalism' means 'strict maintenance of ancient or fundamental doctrines of any religion, especially Islam'.
