About Al-Ameen Mission

Quality education, moral values, and hope for all since 1987.

History of Al-Ameen Mission

It all began with M. Nurul Islam, who set up Khalatpur Junior High Madrasa in 1976 while still in 10th Standard.
In May 1984, he started the Institute of Islamic Culture. Soon, a hostel was set up in 1986, supported by everyone in the village who donated a fistful of rice from their home—true community spirit!

In January 1987 the name became Al-Ameen Mission. Today, it’s not only a leading educational institute but also gives scholarships and loans to students in need.

We serve 12,000+ students from 56 branches in 15 districts—
over 16,000 graduates have built their future with us!

We proudly follow WBBSE, WBHSE, CBSE Board curriculum and received the Banga Bhusan Award (2015)—a mark of true excellence.

وَقُل رَّبِّ زِدْنِي عِلْمًا


“And say: My Lord, increase me in knowledge.” (Qur’an 20:114)


طَلَبُ الْعِلْمِ فَرِيضَةٌ عَلَى كُلِّ مُسْلِمٍ


“Seeking knowledge is an obligation upon every Muslim.” (Sunan Ibn Majah 224)

1947 was a watershed year for India. India became independent, but was sadly also divided. Muslims, especially in West Bengal, faced very hard times for decades.

In the mid-1980s, this started to change when Al-Ameen Mission began. In 1986-87, it started with only seven students, giving modern education and moral values in a fully residential school for everyone, no matter their financial condition.

The poorest were educated free of cost, funded by Donations & Zakat. This inspired many people, and soon there was a movement, now called the Mission Movement. Today, Al-Ameen Mission is strong all over West Bengal.

It is heartening to see Bengali Muslims embracing education to break free from old stereotypes. We humbly believe Al-Ameen Mission has played a big role here.

We share our work for the nation’s progress. We know our limits, but with faith in the Almighty, we believe success will come, step by step.
