Al Jamiatul Ashrafia (Urdu: الجامعۃ اُلاشرفیہ, Hindi: अल जामियत-उल-अशरफ़िया) is a Sunni Madrasa in India. It is located in Mubarakpur in a Northern State of India, Uttar Pradesh.

History

[edit]

It started off as a madrasa called Misbah al-Ulum in 1898 in the town of Mubarakpur of what was then British India.[1] It was named 'Ashrafia' after Syed Shah Ali Hussain Ashraf Kichauchhvi. After struggling for many years and moving locations several times, a new building was constructed using funds raised by Hafiz Abd al-Aziz Muradabadi. This was the site for the school now known as Dar al-Ulum Ahl-i Sunnat or Misbah al-Ulum.[2]

Realizing that the site was becoming too small, Hafiz Abd al-Aziz organized an educational conference in May 1972 to discuss for moving Ashrafia to a larger campus. Scholars of the Barelvi movement such as Mustafa Raza Khan son of Ahmad Raza Khan along with Maulana Syed Ale Mustafa Quadri Barkati[3] and Arshadul Qadri laid the foundation stone with the mission of making it a university for Sunni Hanafi Islam in 1972 at a site outside the city of Azamgarh.[4] Key figures such as Allama Ziaul Mustafa Razvi Qadri, Allama Arshadul Qaudri, Allama Mumtaz Ahmad Ashraful Qadri, Mufti Abdul Mannan, Maulana Shafi, Qari Yehya and Qamaruzzaman Azmi worked with Abd al-Aziz Muradabadi to raise the required funds to build the institution.[5]
