There are so many good contenders, but I will provide just three.

1) The Almohad Caliphate of Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Mauritania, and Spain from 1121–1269 was a fundamentalist Sunni Islamic State. It slaughtered hundreds of thousands of individuals for failing to follow the "right form" of Islam, especially if they were Jews. They closed off education and promoted exclusively their religious beliefs.

2) The Safavid Empire of Iran from 1501-1736 was a strongly theocratic Shiite Islamic State. When compared to the more open and secularized contemporaneous Islamic states like Alaouite Moroccan Kingdom, the Ottoman Empire, and the Mughal Empire, it was much more "single-mindedly religious".

3) The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan from 1992-2001, colloquially called "Taliban Afghanistan", was a fundamentalist Sunni Islamic State where there was a clear attempt to return back 1400 years and create a state where women were forced to wear burqas, where Buddha Statues (declared by UNESCO to be World Heritage Sites) would be blown up for blasphemy, where being Non-Muslim was illegal, etc.
