Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:EngvarB Шаблон:Use dmy datesШаблон:Infobox university Al-Jāmiʿah al-Ahliyyah Dār al-ʿUlūm Muʿīn al-Islām (Шаблон:Lang-ar), popularly known as the Hāṭhazārī Madrasa (Шаблон:Lang-bn) or the Great Madrassah (Шаблон:Lang-bn), is a Qawmi institution of Hathazari, located in Bangladesh's Chittagong District.[1] Established in 1901, it is the largest and oldest Deobandi seminary in the country.[2][3] According to a 2009 National Bureau of Asian Research report, the highly reputed institution ranks among top ten madrasa in the subcontinent.[4]
History
Шаблон:Deobandi Al-Jamiatul Ahlia Darul Ulum Moinul Islam was first established in 1896 CE. It was moved to its present location in Hathazari, Bangladesh in 1901.[5] The Jamiah introduces the Islamic education and Reformation movement in this region.[6]
The Hathazari Madrasah became "arguably the most reputable Quomi madrasa in the country."[5]
Starting in 2004, the Hathazari Madrasa has been at the centre of media attention due to allegations that it is a haven for "terrorist" training.[5] This is the first time in the institution's long history that such allegations have been made against the madrasah itself.[5]
In February 2010, 40 students were arrested for clashing with police and later released. Students had snatched a service rifle.[7]
Organization and administration
The Darul Ulum has divided its education system into six major levels:Шаблон:Citation needed

Network of schools
The "Boro Madrassah" is one of the three large madrasahs, along with Al-Jamiah Al-Islamiah in Patiya, and Jamiatul Uloom Al-Islamia Lalkhan Bazar, that together control over 7000 smaller schools in Bangladesh.[1][6] The three schools are closely coordinated.[6]

Alleged militancy
There are allegations that the Madrassah is a training ground for Islamic extremists.[1][5] While authorities of the school have confirmed that some graduates volunteered for the Afghan jihad during the 1980s, there was no strong evidence to suggest that the school itself was recruiting for the jihad.[5]
The rector of the school, Maulana Ahmad Shafi—popularly known as "Boro Huzur" (the eldest scholar)—is also the chairman of a faction of the political party Islami Oikya Jote.[8] Critics of the party say that membership of IOJ coincides with the Harkat-ul-Jihad al-Islami (HuJI), though a leading Bangladeshi political scientist warns little is actually known about their organisation.[9]
Rector Ahmad is also purported to be the leader of a group called "Hifazat-e-Islam,"[10] which he claims to be a peaceful organisation.[11] Ahmad and his colleagues state that the group is for protesting the government's decisions to introduce a secular education system. A statement from the police mentions that men, suspected to be from Hifazat-e-Islam, fired gunshots and threw homemade bombs on the police, causing injuries to 5 or 6 police constables.[11] It is unclear whether or not these actions were approved by Ahmad Shafi.Шаблон:Citation needed

- (Translation: To summarise the Amardesh story, it states the police action on the procession by Hefajate-Islami. It also includes statements made by Maulana Ahmed who claims his organisation (HI) to be a peaceful one, and that they are protesting the government's decisions to introduce secular education system (which they perceive to be hostile against the right-wing islamists). Note that the newspaper mentions this as the statement of Maulana Ahmed and his colleagues. The police's statement is also included, which mentions that protestors from the Hefajate-Islam procession also fired gunshots and threw homemade bombs on the police, causing injuries to 5/6 police constables.)
