Assalamu
alaikum
Darul
Uloom
Deoband
was
established
in
13
May
1866
by Maulana
Muhammad
Qasim
Nanotawi and
other
ulama
of
his
circle.
The
founders
include
Haaji
Aabid
Hussain,
Maulana
Mehtab
Ali
and
Shaikh
Nehal
Ahmad
(brother-in-law
of Maulana
Nanotawi).
The
school
teaches manqulat (revealed
Islamic
sciences)
according
to
the Hanafi school
of Islamic
jurisprudence.
In
this
seminar,
Nanawtawi
instituted
modern
methods
of
learning
such
as
teaching
in
classrooms,
a
fixed
and
carefully
selected
curriculum,
lectures
by
academics
who
were
leaders
in
their
fields,
exam
periods,
merit
prizes,
and
a
publishing
press.
Students
were±
taught
in Urdu,
and
sometimes
in Arabic for
theological
reasons
or Persian,
for
cultural
and
literary
reasons.
The
curriculum
is
based
on
a
highly
modified
version
of
the
18th
century
Indo-Islamic
syllabus
known
as
[[Dars-i
e-Nizami|Dars-e-Nizami]].
The
students
learn
the Quran and its
exegesis; Hadith and
its
commentary;
and
juristic
rulings
with
textual
and
rational
proofs.
They
also
study
the
biography
of Muhammad, Arabic
grammar, Arabic
language and literature,
and Persian
language.
