Promoting the True Teachings of Islam, Free from Sectarianism
Jamia Ihya-ul-Uloom, established in 1980 in Balamabat, Dir Lower, stands as a distinguished Islamic institution committed to nurturing faith, knowledge, and character within the community. Since its inception, Jamia has played a vital role in the spiritual and intellectual development of society, providing authentic Islamic education and fostering a deep-rooted love for the Quran and Sunnah.
Operating in a region where Islamic scholarship has profound historical roots, the institution is central to sustaining and spreading Islamic knowledge, especially in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa region. The Jamia offers comprehensive educational programs ranging from basic Quranic studies to advanced specializations in Islamic jurisprudence (Takhassus), ensuring students receive holistic and high-quality education without regard to linguistic, regional, or sectarian differences.
Over the years, Jamia Ihya-ul-Uloom has graduated 729 scholars, including 141 specialized Muftis, who now contribute their knowledge and skills to various sectors of society. Currently, the institution serves 1,117 male and female students actively enrolled in Quran recitation, Tajweed, and Dars-e-Nizami courses. The Jamia’s popular Ramadan Dars-e-Tafseer sessions attract over 400 participants, while its teachers organize Tafseer programs in 38 local mosques and madaris, creating opportunities for both men and women to deepen their understanding of the Quran.
At Jamia Ihya-ul-Uloom, our mission extends beyond imparting knowledge; we aim to cultivate individuals who contribute positively to society while embodying Islamic values.

Message
Message from Administrator of Jamia Ihyaululoom
Praise be to Allah, and blessings and peace be upon the Messenger of Allah.
It is an undeniable reality that the foremost issue for the Muslim Ummah regarding the revival of Islam is the pursuit of knowledge and progress in the intellectual field. Serving the true essence of Islam and establishing a state system based on its principles is one of the greatest challenges of our time. Preparing individuals who can guide the Muslim Ummah in intellectual, social, and political domains is essential. Carrying the banner of the establishment of Islam, the primary objective of Jamia Alia Ihya Ul Uloom Balambat is to prepare such capable individuals.
This institution is not merely a school but a representation of an intellectual, practical, and research-driven movement. The future vision is to develop this institution on modern lines, ensuring that each year surpasses the previous one in progress and achievements. It is the collective responsibility of all benefactors and well-wishers to support this institution wholeheartedly.
