Basic Principles of Darul Aloom

The faculty instructed its students primarily
in Urdu, the lingua franca of the urbanised
section of the region, and supplemented it
with study of Arabic (for theological
reasons) and Persian (for cultural and
literary reasons. In due course, it also
unwittingly cemented the growing
association of the Urdu language with the
north Indian Muslim community

Pattern of Education
Deoband's curriculum is based on the 17th-century IndoIslamic syllabus known as Dars-e-Nizami. The core
curriculum teaches Islamic law (Shariah), Islamic
jurispridence (Fiqh), traditional Islamic spirituality (known
as Tasawwuf, which is the focus of Sufism), as well as
several other fields of Islamic study.[4][5]
The current syllabus consists of four stages. The first
three stages can be completed in a total of eight years.
The final stage is a post-graduate stage where students
specialize in a number of advanced topics, such as the
sciences of Hadeeth, Fiqh and so on.

Characteristics of Education in
Ali Garh
MAO College was equipped with the above
philosophy. Tarbiyat of the students living in
Hostels were part of the duties of Principal and
Manager of Hostels. For Islamic and moral
education, Sir Saiyad created a position of Nazime-Diniyaat for MAO College who was responsible
for Islamic and moral education of the students.
Dars-e-Quran was part of curriculum of the college
and every morning before the start of the class,
Allama Shibli Nomani used to give Dars-e-Quran
for about half hour from 1887 to 1895 and later on
the responsibility was handed over to Maulana
Abdullah Ansari, the founder Nazim-e-Diniyaat.

Impact of Deoband School

Many Islamic schools throughout modern India and
Pakistan - and more recently in Afghanistan, the United
Kingdom, South Africa - as well as in hundreds of other
places throughout the world are affiliated, or theologically
linked, to Darul Uloom Deoband. Famous seminaries
have been established by its graduates
As the official website of the Darul Uloom proclaims in
flowery language, 'the whole of Asia is redolent with the
aroma of this Prophetic garden.'

Recent Developments
The Darul Uloom has expanded its activities and started
new departments during the last decades. In view of
great challenge from the Ahmadiyya
Movement (Qadiyanism), Darul Uloom convened the All
India Tahaffuz Khatm-e-Nubuwwat Conference and
established a special department to refute Qadiyanism. It
started the 'Shaikhul Hind Academy' for publishing
books, and training students in Urdu journalism. In 1996,
the Computer Department was opened, which was later
extended and an Internet Department also added. The
Darul Uloom has also introduced a two-year full-time
Diploma in English language and literature for students
wishing to pursue higher education in universities.

Quotation
Khan Abdul Ghafar Khan
I have had relation with Darul Uloom since the
time the Shaikh-ul-Hind, Maulana Mehmud
Hasan, was alive. Sitting here, we used to
make plans for the independence movement,
as to how we might drive away the English
from this country and how we could make
India free from the yoke of slavery of the
British Raj. This institution has made great
efforts for the freedom of this country

Background

Gap between materialism and spiritualism

Role of Ceaser Vs Role of God
Isolation of Ulema from Practical life
Sectional Jealousies
To reach a middle path between classical Islam and modernity.
It was founded at Kanpur in 1894 in the first annual convention
of Nadwatul Ulema ("Organisation of Scholars") by Allama
Shibli Nomani, Muhammad Ali Mongiri, Ashraf Ali Thanwi and
Mahmud-ul-Hasan, with an idea to counter the challenge of
western education. The institution was intended to be a modified
version of Deoband. The foundation stone was laid by Sir. John
Briscott Hewitt, Lt. Governor of India on November 28, 1906.
Pioneer of the movement was Deputy Collector Maulvi Abdul
Ghafoor
In 1894 Maulvi Muhammad Ali Kanpuri was made its first
Administrator (Nazim)

Why NADWA?
The choice of the name Nadwa got inspiration
from a hall in Mecca, where nobles used to
assemble to deliberate. Nadwa was eventually
shifted to Lucknow in 1898 (from Kanpur) and
updated the Islamic curricula with modern
sciences, vocational training etc

Vision of the Founders

The Present educational system and needs a reform.

Principles or representative of all the Islamic Institutions (Madaaris) should attend the
annual convention of Nadwatul Ulema.

A Federation of Madaaris should be formed so that all the madaaris should come under
one umbrella. To implement this scheme few large Madaaris should be started which will
act as a main Madrasah known as Nadwatul-Uloom and rest will be their branches.
Nadwatul-Uloom will keep an eye on the activities of the branches.

Expansion of Madarsa Faiz-e-Aam with Hostel facility.

Curriculum reform (This was proposed by Shah Muhammad Husain Allahabadi and
seconded by Allama Shibli Nomani)
