History

During 1980 and 1982, Darul Uloom Deoband experienced administrative disputes, which Muhammad Taqi Usmani regarded as the worst of their type.[1] These disputes led to its bifurcation. Darul Uloom Deoband remained under the control of Madanis, led by Asad Madni, while the other faction which was led by Muhammad Salim Qasmi and Anzar Shah Kashmiri established a new madrassa called Darul Uloom Waqf in 1982.[2][3][4] Muhammad Salim Qasmi was its first rector.[5][6] On September 3, 2014, the advisory board of Darul Uloom Waqf appointed Muhammad Sufyan Qasmi as its rector.[7]
