Jamiat Ulama-e-Hind says affiliation not necessary for unrecognised madrasas to continue functioning

The Hindu  

Unrecognized madrasas do not need to be affiliated with the Madrasa Education Board in various States to continue functioning, according to the Jamiat Ulama-e-Hind, an organisation of Islamic scholars. “We do not need government aid for our mosques and madrasas, and there is no need for madrasas to get affiliated with any government board for obtaining aid,” said Arshad Madani, president, Jamiat Ulama-e-Hind. His remarks came following a meeting of nearly 6,000 representatives of unrecognised madrasas from all over India at Islamic seminary Darul Uloom, Deoband. Imams, muezzins, muftis and quazis are products of madrasas who serve in various religious affairs of Muslims, just like priests and pujaris in temples and matters of marriage, death etc.,” Mr. Madani added.
