History

The madrasha was established in response to the spread of practices not aligned with traditional Islamic teachings, such as grave worship and the seeking of intercession from the deceased. The founders aimed to provide an alternative that would offer a more authentic and academically rigorous Islamic education. The madrasha has since gained recognition within the local community for its academic efforts.

Facilities and enrollment

[edit]

The madrasha currently operates in rented buildings, with approximately 250 students residing and studying in these accommodations. Although the institution has expanded rapidly since its establishment, challenges remain regarding the provision of adequate classroom and residential facilities.
