This institute was founded by a group of Islamic scholars led by Zafar Ahmad Usmani, Shamsul Haque Faridpuri, Deen Muhammad Khan and Hafezzi Huzur. They planned for the establishment of this seminary around the historic Lalbagh Fort in Shawwal 1370 H (1950 CE). Hafezzi Huzur was the first person who started the class of memorizing the Quran (hifz) amid a lot of difficulties and problems. However, due to the effort of those personalities, the madrasa has now become well known internationally. Jamiah Lalbagh looks after around 70 madrasahs of this area so that they can improve their curricular activities.All the students are residents of the madrasah. The Jamiah gives free education to all students. It also lends them textbooks. Those students who attain an excellent result in the examination are rewarded. Moreover, the Jamiah provides orphans and poor and distressed students with food and accommodation.
