Jamia Binoria
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jamia Binoria is an international Sunni[1] Islamic educational institute located in Karachi, Sindh, Pakistan. It is regarded as one of the most modern madrassas[2].
Jamia Binoria was founded by Mufti Muhammed Naeem in Rajab 1398 A.H. or 1978 CE[3]. It is affiliated to Ittehad Tanzeematul Madaris-e-Deeniya (ITMD), a confederacy of five religious education boards[4]. At one time, Jamia Binoria is said to have had the highest enrollment of foreign students in Pakistan. But the international enrollment dropped following the September 11, 2001 attacks[5]. In 2005, it had around 3,000 male and 500 female students, including students from United States, Canada, United Kingdom, France, Germany and the Far East[5].
