Bridging distances : Education
After India gained independence, the Muslim community did not join the mainstream. Either it did not have a common voice of its own or was never given a platform to air its views. The reasons that can be safely attributed for this situation include indifference of the community’s leadership, lack of intellectual interest, educational unresponsiveness and economic backwardness. Against the then prevailing scenario, the think-tank of the community realised the need for an educational society that could foster better use of education. Towards this end, the Khaja Education Society was established in 1958 under the aegis of Khaja Bandanawaz Trust and thereafter registered in 1966
Khaja Education Society strives to:
- Revive Islamic ethos through education
- Impart religious knowledge along with modern, scientific and technological education to the students of Muslim community, with a view to enable them to achieve all round development of their personalities
- Foster communal harmony, world peace and universal brotherhood
- Inculcate love and understanding, tolerance and respect for others
Caring for Muslim community: Concern for all
Khaja Education Society was initially created to nurture the hopes and aspirations of Muslim community. However its philanthropic approach and compassion for the unprivileged sections of the humanity has enabled it to provide path-breaking service since its existence. It has worked for the upliftment of all, irrespective of caste, creed or religion.
Moreover, Khaja Education Society fosters communal harmony, peace, tolerance, equality, love, understanding and truthfulness. Specific aims

The spiritual enhancement of humanity
Modern lifestyle and the materialistic approach of man has robbed him of the peace so important in life. The importance of religion and the solace it provides, therefore, cannot be undermined. Recognising this fact, the Society gives prime emphasis to Islamic ethos and basic tenets and endeavours to bring together religion and science for a well-balanced approach towards life.
Religious Schools
The age old Madrasah-i- Deeniya and Madrasah-i Huffaz were united to form Darul Uloom Deeniya in 1983. Being affiliated to Jamia Nizamia, the Moulvi class (Oriental Studies), Darul Uloom Deeniya offers course equivalent to graduation and so far several batches of Moulvis (Oriental Graduates) have passed through its portals.
The topics and subjects taught at Darul Uloom Deeniya pertain to Islamic theology and religion. The prominent areas under discussion include Ilmul Fiqh (Islamic Jurisprudence), Ilmul Hadis (Traditions of the Prophet), Ilmul Tafseer (Commentary of the Holy Quran), Seerat (Biography of the Prophet), Arabic Literature and Philosophy.
