Welcome to Madrasah In'aamiyyah
The Institute began on 17 January 1994 with one teacher and one student, at the premises of Hajee Mohammed Essack in Camperdown. It was founded on the instruction of Haji Ahmad Moosa Desai (raḥimahullāh) to his son, Hazrat Moulana Mahmood Madani Desai (raḥimahullāh).
As students grew in number, a six-acre property was bought in Camperdown, where the Madrasah stands today. It is named after Hazratji Moulana In'aamul Hasan Kandhelwi (raḥimahullāh), and its foundation was laid by Shaykhul Hadith Moulana Muhammad Zakariyya Kandhelwi (raḥimahullāh).
All lessons are taught in English, so students from many backgrounds and countries can study together.
