Jamia Qurania Arabia Lalbagh


Jamia Qurania Arabia Lalbagh is a Qawmi madrasa providing higher Islamic studies in Dhaka, Bangladesh. It has seven education sections from kindergarten to post-graduate levels.

History

This institute was founded by a group of Islamic scholars led by Jafar Ahmad Usmani, Mozahide Azam Shamsul Haq Faridpuri, Mufti Din Muhammad Khan and Hafezzi Huzur. They planned for the establishment of this Jamiah around the historic mosque named Lalbagh Shahi Masjid in Shawwal 1370 H. Hafezzi Huzur was the first person who started the class of memorizing the Quran amid a lot of difficulties and problems. However, due to the effort of those personalities, the Jamiah now has become well known at home and abroad. Jamiah Lalbagh looks after around 70 madrasahs of this area so that they can improve their curricular activities.

Library and publications

All the students are residents of the madrasah. The Jamiah gives free education to all students. It also lends them textbooks. Those students who attain an excellent result in the examination are rewarded. Moreover, the Jamiah provides orphans and poor and distressed students with food and accommodation.
