The Man behind Al-Ameen Mission and its history
Once upon a time a man dreamed and he started his journey to make it real from his school days. The man never fair to look to his aim because u knew that honesty, believe, faith and hard work can solve anything. It was a rainy day he went out to convince some ordinary students to study in his newly created school far from his village. Nurul Islam , the man who knows , what and how much effort he had given at that time to bring out this Al-Ameen Mission in this stage. It was 1986 when this mission started with eleven students; it now has 2000 students, more than 800 alumni and 200 teaching and non-teaching staff. It is notable for helping the Muslim community students in West Bengal. It has a good record in state-level examinations
The current Secretary General of the Mission, M, Nurul Islam, set up the Khalatpur Junior High Madrasa in 1976 when he was still studying his 10th Std. In May 1984, he started the Institute of Islamic Culture. He set 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.
The main campus of Mission, Al-Ameen Mission for Boys, is located at Khalatpur, Howrah. It comprises about 45 bighas of land. It consists of a five-storey boys' hostel building, a three-storey school building and a three-storey administrative building with a guest house and health centre. There is a mosque inside the hostel building. It now has about 1115 students, with a residential staff of 200, and a part-time and non-residential staff of 50.
One of the most notable movement of Al-Ameen Mission was the introduction of its girls' branch. Al-Ameen Mission for girls, Khalatpur, Howrah was started in 2000. It is located near the main branch itself, comprising about 15 bighas of land. It consists of a three-storey hostel building and a three-storey school building. It has 350 students.
After realising the need to reach more people, Mission authority started to set up its sister branches in other districts of West Bengal. Al-Ameen Mission for Boys, Belpukur, Dakshin Dinajpur (North Bengal branch, up to class 12) was established in 2001 for the benefit of educationally backward people of North Bengal. In 2002 it set up another branch: the Al-Ameen Mission for Boys, Patharchapri, Birbhum is located in the district of Birbhum near the holy shrine of Hazrath Data Mahboob Shah Wali (RA).

Where there is will there is a way, is an old adage and Nurul Islam, Secretary General of Al Ameen Mission, West Bengal, firmly believes in it. It was the belief which motivated him to embark upon the journey of an arduous task – of empowering the poverty stricken Muslim kids with mainstream education, about which they used to know nothing at all.
Initially in the year 1984 Nurul Islam founded Indian Institute of Culture, which he later renamed as Al Ameen Mission (residential institute for Muslim students) in 1987, but almost a decade before that while still in school (class Xth) in his village, he set up the Junior High Madrasa. Today near its vicinity stands his greatest achievement in 23 acres of compound – a residential school catering to students from class V to class XII. It consists of a three-storey hostel building and a three-storey school building for about 350 girl students.
Besides the Al-Ameen Mission for girls, the main campus of Mission, Al-Ameen Mission for Boys, is located at Khalatpur, Howrah (near the Al Ameen Mission for Girls building). The 45 bighas of land consist of a five-storey boy's hostel building, three-storey school building, three storey administrative building with a guest house, health centre and a mosque inside the hostel building.
It is a no mean achievement for a Mission which was established in 1987 with only eleven students, now has strength of 2000 students and 200 teaching and non-teaching staff and carries the reputation across West Bengal as a first and foremost organization in matters of helping Muslim students.
Following the curriculum of West Bengal Board of Secondary Education (WBBSE) in the matters of academics it has set a good record in state level examinations and because of which it has been awarded "The Telegraph School Award for Excellence".
The Study Circle is also one of the branches of Al-Ameen Mission for West Bengal JEE (Med/Engg) and West Bengal Civil Services (WBCS) coaching.Though primarily it's an educational institute the Al Ameen Mission also does the charity work by helping the unemployed Muslim youths in terms of loan and scholarship.
Surviving (read excelling) mostly on Zakat fund which comes to it from throughout the country, it also receive funds from several other sources such as Maulana Azad Education Foundation and the West Bengal Wakf Board through which it takes care of 25% of seats reserved for poor, destitute and orphans.
