Deobband: Markazul Ma’arif Education and Research Center (MMERC), Mumbai, officially inaugurated the Markaz Online Madrasa [MOM] at Deoband’s Mahmood Hall with the participation of distinguished scholars. On this auspicious occasion a two-day national seminar was also organized that attended by over two hundred scholars and intellectuals from across the country. Presenters used modern technology to convey their ideas to the seminar participants. The seminar included in-depth discussions on the curriculum of the English Medium Online Madrasa, and a consensus was reached on finalizing the curriculum.

It is noteworthy that the Markazul Ma’arif Education and Research Center [MMERC] was established in 1994 by renowned Islamic scholar and philanthropist Maulana Badruddin Ajmal Al-Qasmi. The aim of this institution was to provide graduates of madrasas with quality education in English language and literature along with contemporary communication technologies so that they could effectively preach and address issues in reference to Islam and Muslims for the global mass. This two-year Diploma in English Language and Literature [DELL] course introduced by MMERC has achieved considerable success in its mission. Now, thirty years later, graduates of MMERC have resolved to introduce a unique project of Markaz Online Madrasa [MOM] aiming to benefit Muslims from across the world.

Maulana Muhammad Burhanuddin Qasmi, Director of MMERC, explained that this is a five-year course based on the madrasa model, providing high quality Islamic education. The curriculum and instructional language will be English. Individuals over the age of 15, both male and female, with knowledge of English language who couldn’t or cannot attend a madrasa due to various reasons or professional engagement can enroll from any part of the world and complete the ‘Alim’ course from home. The purpose of this MOM course is to make Islamic education accessible to all with maximum ease by using modern communication technology and direct teaching methodology.

The program was presided over by Hazrat Mufti Abul Qasim Nomani, the Muhtamim [VC] and Shaikhul Hadith of Darul Uloom Deoband, while Hazrat Maulana Badruddin Ajmal Al-Qasmi, the founder of Markazul Ma’arif and member of the Shura of Darul Uloom Deoband, attended as the chief guest.
