Aljamea-tus-Saifiyah

[8][9] I have been systematically endeavoring in recent years to restructure this time-honored Aljamea-tus-Saifiyah so as to harmonize its concepts, its curricula and its general outlook and perspective with the dynamics and the demands of the new age, without, at the same time doing any damage to the essentials and fundamentals of its original objectives.

It has also been my effort to improve the quality, the standard and the diversity of the knowledge imparted in this institution so as to raise it to the status of a respected academy which would attract scholars from all places and from which would radiate rays of sober wisdom and light.

[11] The 51st Dai al-Mutlaq, Taher Saifuddin introduced secular and scientific subjects in the 1960s and gave it the present name of Aljamea-tus-Saifiyah, and admitted its first female students.

The construction of this 14-acre campus that commenced on same year was completed by Burhanuddin, and inaugurated by the President of Pakistan, Mohammed Zia-ul-Haq, on 4 November 1983.

The construction of this 14-acre campus that commenced in 2013 was completed under the reign of Mufaddal Saifuddin, Burhanuddin's son and successor, and inaugurated by the President of Kenya, Uhuru Kenyatta, on 20 April 2017.

The construction of this 14-acre campus that commenced in 2015 was completed under the reign of Mufaddal Saifuddin, and was inaugurated by the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi, on 10 February 2023.

[27] Following the death of Mohammed Burhanuddin, on 16 Rabi al-Awwal 1435 ھ (17 January 2014), and Mufaddal Saifuddin's succession as 53rd Dai al-Mutlaq, he appointed his son Jafar us Sadiq Imaduddin as Aljamea's fourth rector.

[28] After the death of Abbas Fakhruddin on 14 February 2018,[29] and of Qasim Hakimuddin shortly thereafter on 5 April 2018 (in Surat),[30] Mufaddal Saifuddin appointed Aliasghar Kalimuddin and Malik-ul Ashtar Shujauddin as Rectors.
