Unfortunately, I am not aware of a term for political Judaism or political Christianity, even though these things definitely existed historically. Political Judaism is distinct from Zionism in that Zionism is an ethnonationalist movement not a religious revivalist movement. The National Religious Parties (called Datei Leumi in Hebrew) and the Haredi Parties are distinct from this and are actually interested in the creation of a religiously Jewish polity. Christianity, historically, was incredibly tethered to the state and many countries in Europe still have religious laws on the books because of this history. However, it is really only Fundamentalist Christians in the US and in the Third World who wish to institute "Christian Law" over all others.
If we are inventing terms, perhaps Judaizers and Christianists would serve the function, but as these are not commonly used, they mean nothing currently.
As concerns Hinduism and Buddhism, there is no exact corollary to political Islam since neither Hinduism nor Buddhism have religious mandates, only general prescriptions. There is a certain extent to which Hindu Nationalism in India and Zen Buddhism in Japan advocate for privileging the people of their religious group and encouraging people to behave in more religious ways, but there has never been an attempt to institute a particular theological program into law. There are states like Cambodia and Thailand which provide state support for Buddhist institutions, but this is distinct from trying to enforce "Buddhist Law" on the population.
