Courses and Curricula in the Madaris and Diyarul Uloom in Assam

Madaris (Madrasa) and Diyarul Uloom have been the most prominent institutions of religious learning.  Since the rule of the British in India many big Islamic institutions like Madaris and Diyarul Uloom had been formed in the country. Assam was not opposed to it and during the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, a large number of Madaris and Diyarul Uloom have been established. Some of them are established and managed by the people and some of them are established solely by the government.

The Madaris managed by the government of Assam are Pre-senior Madrassas, Senior Madrassas, Title Madrassas and Arabic Colleges. The numbers of these are as follows-

Provincilized Senior Madrassas, Title Madrassas and Arabic Colleges are 74 in number.

Non-Provincilized Pre Senior Madrassas=527,

Senior Madrassas = 100

Title Madrassas = 8

Arabic College  = 01

On the other hand, the non-government institutions managed by the people are Diyarul Uloom, Madarisul Banat, Madarisul Hifz etc. Some of them are governed by the Tanjimul Madarisul Qaumiya Board, (Nil Bagan, Hojai) and others are individuals without being governed by any board.

There are about five thousand institutions in Assam. Outside the board, about seven hundred Madrassas have been being managed by the people. The Course and Curricula of these non-governmental institutions are going to be discussed in brief as under-

Diyarul Uloom = 241

The plural form of ‘Ilmun’ is ‘Uloom’ the meaning of which is ‘Knowledge’. Diyarul Ulooms are the main centre points of Islamic education. These institutions are established and governed by the people. Some Diyarul Ulooms are established in some districts of Assam as in Barpeta, Nagaon, Cacher, Dhubri, Karimganj, Bongaigaon, Goalpara etc. during the ruling period of the British.

These Madaris are also established in the twentieth century but a large number of Madaris are established in the twenty-first century to meet the necessity of people. With the increase in the population, the necessity of religious education has also increased. Consequently, many Madarisul Hifzs are set up.
