History

The Secretary-General of the Mission, Nurul Islam, set up the Khalatpur Junior High Madrasa in 1976 when he was still studying his 10th Standard. In May 1984, he started the Institute of Islamic Culture, setting up a hostel for the institute in 1986 in the Madrasa building itself with the collection of one fistful of rice from every home in his village, Khalatpur. In January 1987, it was renamed as Al-Ameen Mission inspired by the Al-Ameen Educational Society of Dr. Mumtaj Ahmed Khan and Ramkrishna mission. It was later financially supported by industrialist Mustaque Hossain and many others.

Most of them are directly run by Al Ameen Mission and few located in remote village areas are run by local non-profit for better management and service.

Teachers of Al-Ameen

Al-Ameen Mission has a good number of permanent teachers as well as visiting teachers from some reputed schools and colleges. The visiting teachers have shown passion of education beyond traditional teaching territories, as some them become long term associates of Al-Ameen to nurture the talents from the backward minorities. Of all the visiting teachers, Mrinal Kanti Dowari, who died in September 2020 was known for being the authoring standard textbooks of higher secondary physics in West Bengal remain an withstanding legacy to the Al-Ameen students. Despite most of the permanent teachers in Al-Ameen lacked what it takes to be an outstanding educator or orator during the golden age of Al-Ameen i.e. 2000 -2006 (duration when the institution can be considered to have come of age), the dedication was notable regardless of their stature and meagre pay. And the students testimonials speaks out that loud. The success of Al-Ameen students is not just the success of the school but the enduring triumph of the devotion of the teachers to the most well known educational movement among Bengali Muslims in recent times. However, there are few teachers which needs to be mentioned for the unequivocal support to the side of the students, be it educational, sentimental, inspirational or motivational. Dr. Mosarraf Hossain, Amir Hossain, Harun Halder, Madat Ali, S.Zakaria, Syed Shaheed-ul Islam, Rabial Hossain Khan, Prof Susil Kumar Das, Sk Md Iyamin, Mridul Ahamed, Pervej Alam, Md Nur Alam, Dr. Gahul Amen, Dr.A. Khan, KMZ et al, muftiR. were the patrons. Many says has these teachers were not there, Al-Ameen would have been known a lot differently. And to a big extent Dr.Mosarraf Hossain can be safely assumed to be the role model of the students by popular judgement. Dr.Hossain and Syed Shaheed-ul Islam have left Al-Ameen shortly after 2006 to start new chapters of educational movement among Bengali Muslims.
