Final year JMI is aaining peak of success one aer another, but its journey was not as easy and straighorward as it sounds, it will not be impreciseif we say that the 1857 was the outmost pinnacle of the decline for Indian Muslims. amia Millia Islamia has aained the status of being the highest ranking instuon in the Country. However, JMI has been emerging from the past Jwith a special identy compared to other educaonal instuons due to the best educaonal services, it has the history of tolerance and an identy exclusive of its own, an instance of diversity and pluralism of the motherland. Today, JMI is aaining peak of success one aer another, but its journey was not as easy and straighorward as it sounds, it will not be imprecise if we say that the 1857 was the outmost pinnacle of the decline for Indian Muslims. This was the me when the acvies of the freedom movement was in full swing, omnipresence of the sparks of freedom struggle escalated throughout the country but can we say that a large of number of incensed people grant us this freedom? No, this movement was boosted by the essenal paraphernalia of educaon. The example of educaon is like a shield and a sword in war. It was impossible to win such a colossal bale like our freedom struggle was, without educaon. During the colonial period, Muslims were lagging far behind in educaon, as a result of which our scholars have expressed their views, by which Darul Uloom Deoband was came into its existence. Shortly aerwards, Sir Syed called for the establishment of an Sada-e-Jauhar 2020-21 5930 instuon Anglo Oriental Collage to provide both religious and modern educaon, today this instuon is recognized as Aligarh Muslim University. With the elapse of me the expansion in the power of the Brish Raj was proliferated they started acquiring control over the educaonal instuons in India, they aided the instuons with financial support, In this, Aligarh Muslim University was also clinched by Brishers thus it was no longer an instuon which Sir Syed visualized. T h e M u s l i m The Muslim students were students were outraged outraged and demanded that a n d d e m a n d e d t h a t university must terminate the university must terminate accumulation of assistance the accumula o n o f from the Britishers, but the a s s i s t a n c e f ro m t h e university administration did B r i s h e r s , b u t t h e university administraon not paid any attention to did not paid any aenon them. A large number of to them. A large number of activists and freedom fighters acvists and freedom devoted to Non-corporation fighters devoted to Non- Movement and muslin activists corporaon Movement and politicians of INC decided and muslin acvists and policians of INC decided to establish an independent t o e s t a b l i s h a n institution from British independent instuon governance from Brish governance, which administered by I n d i a n c o n n g e n t s , thereupon the founders of Jamia strongly believed that educaon must be free from the Brish control with religious based curriculum having moral, cultural tradions, modern educaon. As if on cue the Ooman Empire in Turkey was dissolved aer this a secon of western educated but radical Islamic Muslim scholars at Aligarh perturbed with the role of the Brish power against the ooman caliphate. In point of fact, the idea of JMI began materialized by Gandhi Ji at that me. Gandhi opposed the Rowle Bills with launching his Satyagraha against it in Delhi during March-April, 1919. He visited Aligarh in October of 1920; his Sada-e-Jauhar 2020-21 3160 significant visit prompted series of events on the Mohammedan Anglo Oriental College campus. Maulana Mohammad Ali, persuaded Gandhi ji about the concept of Khilafat in Islam and what its worth for Muslims. In Aligarh Gandhi ji promoted the khilafat movement and allied with the students and acvists Maulana Abul Kalam Azad, Ali Brothers, Dr.MA Ansari, and Hakeem Ajmal Khan were also present.

    What is the history of Jamia? written by Jamia Helping Platform | January 12, 2019 What is Jamia.? Jamia Millia Islamia, an institution originally established at Aligarh in United Provinces, India in 1920 became a Central University by an act of the Indian Parliament in 1988. In Urdu language, Jamia means ‘University’, and Millia means ‘National’. The story of its growth from a small institution in the pre-independence India to a central university located in New Delhi—offering integrated education from nursery to research in specialized areas—is a saga of dedication, conviction and vision of a people who worked against all odds and saw it growing step by step. They “built up the Jamia Millia stone by stone and sacrifice by sacrifice,” said Sarojini Naidu, the nightingale of India.

    Chapter 7 An Indian Muslim in Jewish Berlin: Khwaja Abdul Hamied When Khwaja Abdul Hamied first met Luba Derczanska on a steamer touring the lakes of Berlin in 1925, and they coincidentally struck up a conversation, one of his first gestures towards her had been to sit down and draw her a map of India (Figure 7.1). Sketching its coastline with the British settlements of Cal- cutta, Rangoon and Colombo in the east and Delhi and Karachi in the north, he will have explained to her that he came from ‘Hindustan’, a continent that had been under British colonial rule for almost two hundred years, and that it was the home of Muslims and Hindus. His strokes near the upper edge showed the high mountains from where the holy rivers of Hinduism flowed. The names of Lahore and Kashmir pinpointed the old centres of spiritual Islam.1 Hamied also charted his own history on the map by marking where he was born (Aligarh), where British soldiers had shot into a group of Muslim protest- ers (Cawnpore), and where he had flouted his noble Muslim family tradition by enrolling in a lowly leather trade school (Madras). He would then have tak- en her back to Aligarh where he had been one of the main student leaders in the Non-Cooperation Movement, adding extra dots to indicate Ahmedabad, which was from where Gandhi had coordinated the movement from his ash- ram, and Bombay, the centre of the Indian independence struggle. He will have told her about key experiences that were still fresh in his mind – how they had walked out of college and organized picket lines, and how he had taught at the Jamia Millia Islamia, the Muslim national university in which the British had no say.

  • The Particulars of Its Organization, Functions and Duties:– Section 4(1)(B)(I)
    MANUAL-1 The particulars of its organization, functions and duties:– Section 4(1)(b)(i) Jamia Millia Islamia, an institution originally established at Aligarh in United Provinces, India in 1920 became a Central University by an act of the Indian Parliament in 1988. In Urdu language, Jamia means ‘University’, and Millia means ‘National’. The story of its growth from a small institution in the pre-independence India to a central university located in New Delhi—offering integrated education from nursery to research in specialized areas—is a saga of dedication, conviction and vision of a people who worked against all odds and saw it growing step by step. They “built up the Jamia Millia stone by stone and sacrifice by sacrifice,” said Sarojini Naidu, the nightingale of India. Conception Under the colonial British rule, two dominant trends joined hands and contributed towards in the birth of Jamia. One was the anti-colonial Islamic activism and the other was the pro- independence aspiration of the politically radical section of western educated Indian Muslim intelligentsia. In the political climate of 1920, the two trends gravitated together with Mahatma Gandhi as a catalyst. The anti-colonial activism signified by the Khilafat and the pro- independence aspirations symbolised by the non-cooperation movement of the Indian National Congress helped to harness creative energies and the subsequent making of Jamia Millia Islamia. Rabindranath Tagore called it “one of the most progressive educational institutions of India”. Responding to Gandhiji’s call to boycott all educational institutions supported or run by the colonial regime, a group of nationalist teachers and students quit Aligarh Muslim University, protesting against its pro-British inclinations.

Education is a life-long process. It continues from the cradle to the grave. It equips people with knowledge and skills to enable them to live a prosperous and happy life. Education serves as supra structure of a country. The development of country depends upon the standard and quality of education in the country. Education is a mean through which a man knows himself and his position and duties in this world. It helps individual in self-realization and is a process of exploring of individual’s potentiality and tries to enable the individual using his power in positive manner (Khalid, 1998). The arrival of Syed Ahmad Khan on the India educational scene is perhaps the most outstanding event in the 19 th century in the history of Muslim education.

  • Dr. Zakir Husain and His Contemporaries Archives & Portrait
    It gives me great pleasure to share with all concerned some of the significant achievements of Jamia Millia Islamia since the beginning of the new millennium. All this has been possible due to active support and cooperation of our students, colleagues and will wishers. I take this opportunity to convey my gratitude to them. Syed Shahid Mahdi Vice-Chancellor New Delhi, June 2, 2004 Jamia Millia Islamia Genesis Jamia Millia Islamia was established in response to Mahatma Gandhi’s call to boycott government supported educational institutions in 1920. Among those who enthusiastically responded to this call were Shaikhul Hind Maulana Mahmud Hasan, Maulana Mohamed Ali, Hakim Ajmal Khan, Dr. Mukhtar Ahmad Ansari, Abdul Majeed Khwaja and Dr. Zakir Husain. These Nationalist Muslims , along with some others, founded the Jamia Millia Islamia. They nurtured it through the changing vicissitudes of history at great personal risk and inconvenience. The Jamia moved from Aligarh to Delhi in 1925. Since then, it has been continuously growing, always refurbishing its methods, and branching out from time to time to meet new challenges. True to the ideals of its founders, it has, over the years, tried to focus on all round development of its students. Though its founders and architects were mainly Muslims, the Jamia from the very beginning remained devoted to the ideals of secular education and kept its doors open to students and staff of all creeds and denominations. In 1963, Jamia Millia Islamia was declared a deemed university under section 2 of University Grants Commission Act. and subsequently elevated to the status of a Central University as per Jamia Millia Islamia Act 1988, passed by the Parliament on 26th December 1988.

  • Chapter 1 Roots: with Humility and Gratitude
    Chapter 1 Roots: With Humility and Gratitude here are no printed or written records in my possession dealing Twith my ancestors. Whatever follows is, of necessity, confined to my parents, grandparents, paternal and maternal, and to my maternal great grandfather, Molvi Sami Ullah (d. 1908). I, however, understand that my ancestors on the father’s side are the descendants of Khwaja Ubaidullah Ahrar, the renowned Saint from Tashkent in the 16th century, and, reportedly, the spiritual mentor of Babar. Our first ancestor who lies buried in the family graveyard in Aligarh city is Khwaja Abdul Qadir. His ancestors had earlier lived in village Sasni, about twelve kilometers from Aligarh city. My grandfather, Khwaja Muhammad Yusuf (d. 1902), one of the top lawyers and landowners of Aligarh, was a strong and influential supporter of the Aligarh Movement under the leadership of Sir Syed Ahmad Khan. Most of the rich and powerful landlords of the region were still reluctant, at that point of time, to go along with Sir Syed’s mission of Western education and Islamic liberalism. They supported Western education more out of pressure from the British rulers rather than out of inner conviction. But Muhammad Yusuf, out of genuine conviction in the correctness of Sir Syed’s vision, generously donated large sums to the College Fund Committee. He was also very active in the affairs of the Scientific Society. He had no objection to matrimonial alliances between different ethnic groups among the Muslims, some- thing that was not looked upon as socially proper among traditional Muslims. He did not allow his beliefs and convictions to stand in the way of his warm friendships with Hindus and others or in adopting Western ways in several social matters.
