A great philosopher and scholar of contemporary Muslim world, Murtaza Mutahhary was born in 1918 AD in village Fariman of Mashhad in the Khorasan province of Iran. He studied for 16 years in the Divinity collage of Ghom in the branches of literature, philosophy, jurisprudence and other subjects. He worked as a professor of theology and philosophy in the same collage for several years. He also acted as professor of these subjects in the Tehran University. He engaged himself in research work which resulted in publication of many books on religion, philosophy and social topics and attained the title of Ayatullah. He was a genius and versatile scholar as is proved from his numerous works and lectures, pamphlets and books, a total of more than 40 published works. His most renowned works are “Islamic world vision”, “Man in the Quran”. “Devine justice”, “Society and History”, “Revelation of Prophethood” and “Right of Women in Islam”. This scholar was martyred by assassins in 1980 AD in Tehran.

As a tribute to this great scholar of Islam his name is adopted for the institution as a guiding Model in our pursuit.

Education

Schools were opened by the state Govt. after independence to impart education to the children of this frontier district but the logistical constraints and inability to get qualified teaching staff were the major road blocks for achieving the goals. The age old tribal mindset was also a factor for classical approach of the society towards education. This along with misconceived propagation of a section of half learned clergy that modern education contradicts the Islamic way was factor depriving the masses of education particularly the female child. The status of education upto 1980s remained very grim.
EDUCATION:

Schools were opened by the state Govt. after independence to impart education to the children of this frontier district but the logistical constraints and inability to get qualified teaching staff were the major road blocks for achieving the goals. The age old tribal mindset was also a factor for classical approach of the society towards education. This along with misconceived propagation of a section of half learned clergy that modern education contradicts the Islamic way was factor depriving the masses of education particularly the female child. The status of education upto 1980s remained very grim.

NEW INITIATIVE:

Cautioned by this alarming situation a batch of youth, imaginative and dedicated people headed by spiritual leader rose to the occasion to take the challenge head on. They founded an educational institution with the name and inspiration from great Islamic scholar Murtaza Mutahhary. They formed a core group and assigned themselves the following task:-

1.    To raise the standard of education by imparting quality education and for this purpose to set up a network of standard schools in the district for modern education alongside Islamic teachings.
2.    To promote awareness among local population as well as the clergy community about the need of Modern Education along with religious knowledge.
