Dear
Brothers and Sisters,
With the
grace of Allah Jalle
Shanahu our esteemed institutions M.A.I. is about to complete 117
years of its glorious education achievements and welfare service for
the Muslim Community. Right from its inception till today it has
gone through many ups and downs in its endeavors Despite all the
hurdles M.A.I. continued its journey marching at ahead with glorious
record of achievements. Its started its educational activity from
rented house. In order to satisfy the increasing thirst for
education in 1981 they build up a big building in the huge space of
Kathradawadi and shifted the educational activity from the Bazar to
this new building. Today this M.A.I. Educational campus has become
so vast the people have started calling it a “Mini University”. In
this modern age the importance of education is imperative and
inevitable to make the citizens efficient, useful and responsible
towards their duties and responsibilities towards their nation,
there parents and families. It is only through acquiring education
that the prevalent evils in our society can be eradicated and we can
create an atmosphere of face, love, fraternity, justice, equality,
compassion and the value of human existence. Only the education can
spread the fragrance of compassion and human values and dignity in
our social structure. Our M,A.I. Educational Campus is like a lime
light or shining star changing darkness in to light and tears in to
cheers.
In this golden chain of the
educational progress the M.A.I. English Medium School [ From Jr. K.G.
to Standard XII ] is a valuable pearl. Its achievement is
undoubtedly, remarkable. Many institution in our neighboring areas
tried their best to established and run an English Medium School but
they could not succeed. Many of them had to close down. The
priceless efforts of our elders and well wishers encouraged this
English Medium School and with the grace of Allah we have 1935
students [ From Std. 1 to 12] Receiving quality education in this
school its march towards the progress is continued.
In order to start Girls High
School with good strength great and sincere efforts and devotion of
Dr. M.E. Kazi Saheb, Janab Ahmed Gora Patel Saheb, Janab Yusuf
Razakazi Saheb and Janab Hasimbhai Surti Saheb greatly contributed
for its success. More and more girls started receiving education
from highly qualified and trained teachers. Beside the normal
subjects the girls are also taught Computers, Home Science,
Tailoring, Embroidery, Typing and Fine Arts. Such facilities are not
available in any other girls school in the whole taluka . By
learning these subjects the girls can improve their social and
economic status.
In order to promote good and
useful education among girls the inspiring and untiring efforts of
our elders helped us to get assistance from Islamic Development Bank
of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. This I.D.B. gladly accepted our proposal
and provided us funds for the Girls Hostel and Vocational Training
Centre for Girls along with other necessary requirements. In this
Vocational Center even the Technical Subjects are taught. It is
great achievement and a matter of pride for M.A.I. There are 280
Girls in the Girls Hostel who not only study their normal academic
subjects but also learn subjects related to home science. Aalemas in
the Hostel teach these girls Deeni rituals in theory and practice.
There is completely Deeni environment in the girls hostel. We are
proud to say that M.A.I. Girls Hostel is the only Hostel of its kind
in whole of Gujarat which provided facilities of Deeni and Dunyavi
education for girls.
M.A.I. took also special note
to promote Deeni education [Maktab] because it was very necessary to
impart Deeni education to our children. We did make this provision
in our educational plan. In this respect, for many years, Marhoom
Haji Ibrahim Isaack Saheb took keen interest for the establishment
of good Maktab in which well planed and organized Deeni Education
will be provided under the care of efficient Aalimas. Talim through
the Noorani Qaida was introduce so that the student learn the proper
pronunciation of Arabic words. As visualized by Marhoom Haji Ibrahim
Isaack Sahab Arabic Education through this method started bearing
good fruits. May Allah reward Marhoom Haji Ibrahim Isaack Sahab and
offer him a place in Jannatul Firdaus for his noble deeds. Aameen.
After his death his worthy sons namely Haji Ibrahim Isaack Sahab and
Qari Haji Aiyubbhai Isaack Sahab carried forward thr noble task of
their beloved father and greatly contributed their share in the
progress of Deeni Education.
Our M.A.I. Educational Campus
has become a popular center for most Examination conducted by the
state government S.S.C., H.S.C. Drawing Exams. Hindi Exams are
conducted in our Educational Campus. Such activities have made our
institution more popular and prestigious in the field of education.
Our M.A.I. Education Campus
still needs many more facilities for its students. It needs R.C.C.
roads to go from one section to another. There is a lack of good
laboratories and Libraries in all the sections. There is an urgent
and special need of a multi purpose assembly hall. With Allah’s
great we expert that these requirements will be fulfilled in near
future. Still our dreams are hopes are much higher to march ahead
with greater progress. With all the sincerity and efficiency of the
founders and undaunted efforts and goodwill and far sighted vision
of our trustees we look forward to fulfill our dreams for the glory
of this institution.
Come! Lets us all join hands
and pray before Allah with all our hearts to accept our duas, our
efforts and selfless services for the progress and prosperity of M.A.I.
institution and make it a shining and guiding star for others to
Follow. May Allah Shower his blessings of peace and progress upon
all Teachers, Principals, other workers and all others who are
connected with this institution in some way or the other.
I take this opportunity to
express my sincere gratitude towards our respected elders namely
