Al-karam Centre

Jamia Al-Karam was established in 1985 in Milton Keynes as a centre of knowledge and learning seeking to serve British Muslims through excellence in education and spirituality so that they are able to fulfil their roles in their respective communities as scholars, Imams and leaders. Its founder, Shaykh Muhammad Imdad Hussain Pirzada, began this project with humble beginnings from a small terraced house and mosque. Over the course of a decade, student numbers rapidly increased and the support for Jamia Al-Karam and its vision resonated across the country. Soon it was time for expansion, and in 1995 with the generous support of British Muslims, Jamia Al-Karam moved from Milton Keynes to Retford and established itself at the large 30-acre site of the Eaton Hall campus in rural Nottinghamshire.
