📜 Our Historic Legacy — National Level

The Foundation (1919)

Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind (Council of Indian Muslim Theologians) is a premier organization of Islamic scholars belonging to the Deobandi school of thought. It was founded in November 1919 by a visionary group of scholars including Abdul Bari Firangi Mahali, Kifayatullah Dehlawi, Muhammad Ibrahim Mir Sialkoti, and Sanaullah Amritsari. The first general meeting was held in Amritsar on December 28, 1919, where the constitution drafted by Kifayatullah Dehlawi was presented.

Role in the Freedom Struggle

The Jamiat was a fierce opponent of British colonial rule and a pioneer of the independence movement:

• Composite Nationalism: The organization staunchly opposed the partition of India, advocating that Muslims and non-Muslims form one united nation.
• Khilafat & Congress Alliance: It was an active participant in the Khilafat Movement in collaboration with the Indian National Congress.
• Boycott & Resistance: In 1920, the Jamiat issued a famous religious edict (Fatwa Tark-e-Mawalat) signed by 500 scholars to boycott British goods.
• Quit India Movement: The organization participated in the Quit India Movement and the Salt March, with its leaders frequently facing imprisonment by the British authorities.

Constitutional Allegiance

The Jamiat views the Constitution of India as a mutual contract (Mu’ahadah) between the various communities of the country. As a result, it is the responsibility of Indian Muslims to support the secular framework of the nation and remain loyal, law-abiding citizens.
