About Baitul Uloom
Hazrat Molana Abdullah Sahab Aazmi رحمتہ اللہ علیہ is the founder of Madrasa Baitul Uloom, Malegaon. He was born in the Malegaon area of eastern Uttar Pradesh, in a place called Azamgarh, during the 1857 Revolutionary era. His parents gave special attention to his education and well-being. After completing his education from the local madaris and ulama, he intended to move out of town to seek livelihood and income. Allah guided him at every step, and he reached the land of Malegaon.
At that time, Malegaon was a very small town, and the people were illiterate. Ignorance was common in the area. Because of illiteracy, people couldn't even read letters. They faced difficulties finding someone who could read the letters to them. After seeing the illiteracy in society, Molana decided to do something for education. He decided to establish an Islamic madrasa, and after much struggle and with the help of well-renowned people, he laid the foundation of Baitul Uloom Madrasa in Gurbaid Mosque in the auspicious year of 1886.
Our Legacy
Baitul Uloom is today a renowned religious and academic center in the Islamic world
In Maharashtra, it is one of the largest institutions for the dissemination and propagation of Islam and a major center of education in the Islamic sciences. Accomplished scholars have graduated from Baitul Uloom in every era, and in accordance with the religious needs of their time, they have rendered valuable services in disseminating and spreading correct religious beliefs and Islamic sciences.
After some time, Baitul Uloom Madrasa moved to a new building in Nayapura. During these years, Baitul Uloom was the largest institution for the dissemination and propagation of Islam and the foremost center of education in Islamic sciences in Maharashtra. After a long period, due to lack of space, the madrasa moved again to Abdullah Nagar, an area named after Hazrat Molana Abdullah Sahab Aazmi رحمتہ اللہ علیہ.
