Muhibbullah Babunagari

Shah Mohammad Muhibbullah Babunagari (Bengali: শাহ মোহম্মদ মুহিব্বুল্লাহ বাবুনগরী; born 15 February 1934) is a Bangladeshi Deobandi Islamic scholar, politician and academic.

[5] Muhibullah was born on 15 February 1934 in the village of Babunagar in Fatikchhari Thana, Chittagong District, East Bengal, Pakistan (now Bangladesh) to a Bengali Muslim family of theologians.

[1] His paternal grandfather, Sufi Azizur Rahman, was one of the founders of Al-Jamiatul Ahlia Darul Ulum Moinul Islam in Hathazari, and traced his ancestry to Caliph Abu Bakr.

He then proceeded to study at the Al-Jamiatul Ahlia Darul Ulum Moinul Islam in Hathazari from class 9 (Hidayah Awwalain).

Seeking to extend his Islamic studies to a further level, Babunagari left Bengal to enrol at the Darul Uloom Deoband in North India.
