Jamia Islamia Markazul Uloom
Jamia Islamia Markazul Uloom, also spelt as Jamia Islamia Markaz-Ul-Uloom, is the oldest Islamic educational institution belonging to the Deobandi school of thought in the Cuttack district of the Indian state of Odisha. HistoryJamia Islamia Markazul Uloom Sungra actually started as a school, but in 1945, when Anjuman Tabligh-e-Islam was established, that school came under the supervision of the Anjuman, and the Anjuman converted this school into an Arabic seminary, transferred it, and named it Madrasa Arabia Islamia Sungra. Then, on December 29, 1946, Muhammad Ismail Katki was elected the preacher of the Anjuman and the president of this madrasa, and on May 7, 1951, he was appointed as a permanent dignitary by the Anjuman.[1][2][3]    In 1987, on the occasion of the Imārat Conference, Sirajussajidin Katki changed the name of the seminary from "Madrasa Arabia Islamia Sungra" to "Markazul Uloom Madrasa Arabia Islamia Sungra". During his tenure, it was renamed "Al Jamia Al-Islamia Markazul Uloom", and now this institution is registered as Jamia Islamia Markazul Uloom.[1]  Husain Ahmad Madani was the patron of this seminary from the first day, then Asad Madani was its patron until his demise, and the current patron is Arshad Madani.[1]  Administration
