It was founded in November 1919 by a group of Muslim scholars including [[Abdul Bari Firangi Mahali]], [[Kifayatullah Dehlawi]], [[Muhammad Ibrahim Mir Sialkoti]] and [[Sanaullah Amritsari]].

The Jamiat was an active participant in the [[Khilafat Movement]] in collaboration with the [[Indian National Congress]]. It also [[opposition to the partition of India|opposed the partition of India]], taking the position of [[composite nationalism]]: that Muslims and non-Muslims form one nation. As a result, this organisation had a small break-away faction known as the [[Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam]], which decided to support the [[Pakistan movement]].

The constitution of the Jamiat was drafted by Kifayatullah Dehlawi. As of 2021, it is spread over various states of India and has established institutions and wings such as the Idara Mabahith-e-Fiqhiyyah, the Jamiat National Open School, the Jamiat Ulama-e-Hind Halal Trust, the Legal Cell Institute and the Jamiat Youth Club. [[Arshad Madani]] succeeded his brother [[Asad Madani]] as the president in February 2006, however the organisation split into the Arshad group and Mahmood group in March 2008. [[Usman Mansoorpuri]] became the president of the Mahmood group and continued to serve the position until his death in May 2021. [[Mahmood Madani]] succeeded him as the interim president before being appointed the president on 18 September 2021. Arshad Madani serves as the president of Arshad group.

==History== ===Inception and development=== On 23 November 1919, the [[Khilafat Movement|Khilafat Committee]] held its first conference in Delhi which was attended by Muslim scholars from all over the India.{{Sfn|Jami'i|1995|p=492}}{{Sfn|Deobandi|p=140}} Afterward, a group of twenty-five Muslim scholars from among them held a separate conference in the hall of Krishna Theatre, in Delhi, and formed the Jamiat Ulama-e-Hind.{{Sfn|Jami'i|1995|p=492}} These scholars included [[Abdul Bari Firangi Mahali]], [[Ahmad Saeed Dehlavi]], [[Kifayatullah Dihlawi]], [[Muniruzzaman Khan]], [[Mohammad Akram Khan]], [[Muhammad Ibrahim Mir Sialkoti]], [[Dawood Ghaznavi]] and [[Sanaullah Amritsari]].{{Sfn|Wasif Dehlavi|1970|p=45}} Other scholars included Abdul Haleem Gayawi, Azad Subhani, Bakhsh Amritsari, Ibrahim Darbhangawi, Muhammad Abdullah, Muhammad Imam Sindhi, Muhammad Asadullah Sindhi, Muhammad Fakhir, Muhammad Anees, Muhammad Sadiq, Khuda Bakhsh Muzaffarpuri, Khwaja Ghulam Nizamuddin, Qadeer Bakhsh, Salamatullah, Sayyid Ismail, Sayyid Kamaluddin, and Taj Muhammad.{{Sfn|Wasif Dehlavi|1970|p=44}}

The first general meeting of the Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind was held at [[Amritsar]] on 28 December 1919, at the request of [[Sanaullah Amritsari]], in which Kifayatullah Dehlawi presented a draft of its constitution.{{Sfn|Deobandi|p=140}}{{Sfn|Jami'i|1995|p=492}} [[Abul Muhasin Sajjad]] and Mazharuddin are also mentioned among the key founders.{{Sfn|Wasif Dehlavi|1970|p=69}} A common misconception exists that the Jamiat was founded by [[Mahmud Hasan Deobandi]] and his other colleagues including [[Hussain Ahmad Madani]], however this is not true as they were jailed in [[Malta]] at the time the organisation was founded.{{Sfn|Wasif Dehlavi|1970|p=7, 13}}

When the Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind was founded, Kifayatullah Dehlawi was appointed interim president and [[Ahmad Saeed Dehlavi]] was made an interim secretary.{{Sfn|Wasif Dehlavi|1970|p=74}} The Jamiat formed its first governing body at its first general meeting, which was held at [[Amritsar]].{{Sfn|Jami'i|1995|p=492}}{{Sfn|Wasif Dehlavi|1970|p=57, 65}} The second general meeting of the Jamiat was held during November 1920 in Delhi, where [[Mahmud Hasan Deobandi]] was appointed the president and Kifayatullah Dehlawi the vice-president. Hasan died several days after (on 30 November) and Kifayatullah continued to serve as the vice-president whilst concurrently serving as interim-president, until he was permanently appointed president on 6 September 1921.{{Sfn|Wasif Dehlavi|1970|p=74}} The scholars of the [[Darul Uloom Deoband]] associated with the Jamiat only after Mahmud Hasan Deobandi was released, and they had no substantial role in its establishment.{{Sfn|Wasif Dehlavi|1970|p=47-49}} It is now considered a major organisation belonging to the scholars of Deoband.<ref>{{cite news |title=Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind slams Pakistan, says neighboring nation bent on destroying Kashmir |url=https://www.financialexpress.com/india-news/jamiat-ulama-i-hind-slams-pakistan-says-neighbouring-nation-bent-on-destroying-kashmir/1704903/ |access-date=24 July 2021 |work=Financial Express |date=13 September 2019}}</ref>

===Governance=== The earliest principles and constitution of the Jamiat were written by [[Kifayatullah Dehlawi]]. In the first general meeting in [[Amritsar]] it was decreed that these be published and opinions gathered from a group of scholars in attendance, and that it then be discussed again at the next meeting.{{Sfn|Wasif Dehlavi|1970|p=56}} The principles and constitution were ratified in the second meeting, held in Delhi and presided over by [[Mahmud Hasan Deobandi]].{{Sfn|Wasif Dehlavi|1970|p=56}} There it was decided that the organisation would be called the "Jamiat Ulama-e-Hind", its headquarters located in Delhi, and its stamp state, "Al-Jamiat al-Markaziyyah li al-Ulama il-Hind" ({{translation|"The Central Council of the Scholars of India"}}).{{Sfn|Wasif Dehlavi|1970|p=56}} It aimed to defend Islam from any external or alien threat; to guide common folk in politics through the lens of Islamic precepts; and to establish an Islamic court, the Darul Qadha.{{Sfn|Wasif Dehlavi|1970|p=56}}

The first governing body of the Jamiat Ulama-e-Hind was formed in [[Amritsar]]. Its members included Abdul Majid Badayuni, [[Abul Muhasin Sajjad]], [[Ahmad Saeed Dehlavi]], [[Hakim Ajmal Khan]], [[Hasrat Mohani]], Khuda Bakhsh, Mazharuddin, Muhammad Abdullah Sindhi, Muhammad Fakhir Allahabadi, [[Muniruzzaman Khan]], [[Mohammad Akram Khan]], [[Muhammad Ibrahim Mir Sialkoti]], Muhammad Sadiq Karachivi, Ruknuddin Dāna, Salamatullah Farangimahali, [[Sanaullah Amritsari]], Sayyid Muhammad Dawood Ghaznawi and Turab Ali Sindhi.{{Sfn|Jami'i|1995|p=492}}

The first working committee was formed over 9 and 10 February 1922, in Delhi.{{Sfn|Jami'i|1995|p=492}} It consisted of nine people; Abdul Haleem Siddiqi, Abdul Majid Qadri Badayuni, Abdul Qadir Qusoori, Ahmadullah Panipati, [[Hakim Ajmal Khan]], [[Hasrat Mohani]], Kifayatullah Dehlawi, Mazharuddin and [[Shabbir Ahmad Usmani]].{{Sfn|Wasif Dehlavi|1970|p=57, 65}} In March 1922 the number was increased to twelve, and Abdul Qadeer Badayuni, Azad Subhani and Ibrahim Sialkoti were added to the working body.{{Sfn|Wasif Dehlavi|1970|p=57, 65}} The Jamiat elected [[Murtaza Hasan Chandpuri]] and Nisar Ahmad Kanpuri as the vice-presidents on 15 January 1925.{{Sfn|Wasif Dehlavi|1970|p=57, 65}}

The Jamiat has an organisational network which is spread across India. It also has an Urdu [[Newspaper|daily newspaper]], the ''Al-Jamiyat''.<ref name="smith"/> The newspaper was banned by the British government of India in 1938, but was restarted on 23 December 1947 with [[Muhammad Miyan Deobandi]] appointed its editor.{{Sfn|Amini|2017|p=48, 106}} The Jamiat propounds a theological basis for its nationalistic philosophy, which is that Muslims and non-Muslims have entered upon a mutual contract in India, since independence, to establish a secular state. The [[Constitution of India]] represents this contract. This is known in Urdu as a ''mu'ahadah''. Accordingly, as the Muslim community's [[Constituent Assembly of India#Members of the Indian Constituent Assembly|elected representatives]] support and swear allegiance to this ''mu'ahadah'', so too is it the responsibility of Indian Muslims to support the Indian Constitution. This ''mu'ahadah'' is similar to a previous [[Constitution of Medina|similar contract]] signed between the Muslims and the Jews in Medina.<ref name="smith">{{cite book |last1=Smith |first1=Wilfred Cantwell |author1-link=Wilfred Cantwell Smith |title=Islam in Modern History |date=1957 |publisher=[[Princeton University Press]] |location= [[Princeton, New Jersey|Princeton]]|pages=284–285 |url=http://ignca.gov.in/Asi_data/16265.pdf |access-date=25 July 2021}}</ref>

=== Independence movement === On 8 September 1920, the Jamiat issued a religious edict, called ''Fatwa Tark-e-Mawalat'', boycotting British goods. This was authored by [[Abul Muhasin Sajjad]] and signed by 500 scholars.{{Sfn|Wasif Dehlavi|1970|p=58}} During the [[British Raj]], the Jamiat opposed British rule in India and participated in the [[Quit India Movement]].{{Sfn|Jami'i|1995|p=258}} Since its inception in 1919 it aimed for a "British-free India".{{Sfn|Jami'i|1995|p=492}} It formed an institution called "Idārah Harbiyyah" ({{translation|The War Council}}) during the [[civil disobedience movement]].{{Sfn|Mansoorpuri|2014|p=189}}{{Sfn|Islam|2018|p=158}}

[[File:Hifzur Rahman Seoharwi sharing stage with Azad, Nehru and others.jpg|thumb|right|Hifzur Rahman Seoharwi, a prominent scholar of the Jamiat speaking at a conference and sharing stage with [[Abul Kalam Azad]] and [[Jawahar Lal Nehru]].]]

The Jamiat's scholars were arrested frequently, and its general secretary [[Ahmad Saeed Dehlavi]] spent fifteen years of his life in jail.{{Sfn|Adrawi|2016|p=21}} The Jamiat secured pledges from the Muslim community that they would avoid using British cloth and enrolled about fifteen thousand volunteers to participate in the [[Salt March]].{{Sfn|Islam|2018|p=158}} Kifayatullah Dehlawi, the co-founder of the Jamiat, was imprisoned in Gujarat jail for six months in 1930 for participating in the civil disobedience movement. On 31 March 1932, he was arrested for leading a procession of over a hundred thousand people and imprisoned in Multan jail for eighteen months.{{Sfn|Mansoorpuri|2014|p=186}} The general secretary of the Jamiat, [[Muhammad Miyan Deobandi]], was arrested five times and his book ''Ulama-e-Hind ka Shāndār Māzī'' ({{Translation|The Glorious Past of Indian Scholars}}) was seized for discussing the struggles of Muslim scholars against the ruling people, including the British Raj.{{Sfn|Amini|2017|p=569}} [[Hifzur Rahman Seoharwi]], another scholar of the Jamiat, was arrested multiple times for campaigning against British colonialism.{{Sfn|Adrawi|2016|p=81}} He spent eight years in incarceration.<ref>{{cite news|first=Abu Tariq|last=Hijazi|title=Maulana Hifzur Rahman and his Qasas-ul-Qur'an|url=https://www.arabnews.com/islam-perspective/maulana-hifzur-rahman-and-his-qasas-ul-qur%E2%80%99 |access-date=23 July 2021 |work=Arab News |date=22 February 2013}}</ref>

===Partition of India === [[Hussain Ahmad Madani]], the principal of the Darul Uloom Deoband (from 1927 to 1957) and the leading Deobandi scholar of the day, held that Muslims were unquestionably part of a united India and that [[Hindu-Muslim unity]] was necessary for the country's freedom.

[[Ishtiaq Ahmed (political scientist)|Ishtiaq Ahmed]] states that, in return for their support, the Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind obtained a pledge from the Indian leadership that the state would not interfere with the [[Muslim Personal Law]].

Following India's independence, the Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind reassessed its political role and decided to disengage from electoral politics. The organisation reaffirmed its commitment to the preservation of Muslim faith and culture, officially transitioning to a non-political entity on March 20, 1948.<ref>{{Cite thesis |last=Khan |first=Irfanullah |title=The Deoband Movement and the Rise of Religious Militancy in Pakistan |degree=PhD |publisher=[[Quaid-i-Azam University]] |url=http://prr.hec.gov.pk/jspui/handle/123456789/13652 |language=en |year=2018 |location=Pakistan |page=71 |access-date=21 September 2024 |archive-date=4 January 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220104130928/http://prr.hec.gov.pk/jspui/handle/123456789/13652 }}</ref>

The school was established to provide students with high quality and contemporary academic learning, in part because thousands of students graduate from Islamic [[madrasas]] every year, but often lack adequate contemporary secular education abilities and skills.<ref name="yusra">{{cite news |first=Yusra|last=Husain |title=Jamiat open school to have smart classes |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/lucknow/jamiat-open-school-to-have-smart-classes/articleshow/81320613.cms |access-date=14 July 2021 |work=Times of India |date=4 March 2021}}</ref><ref name="cognate"/>

===Legal Cell Institute===

Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind also has the Legal Cell institute, through which it helps Muslims accused of [[Islamic terrorism]] to fight legal battles, including individuals like Faheem Ansari and Sabauddin, who were later acquitted in the [[2008 Mumbai Attacks]]. However, not all those aided by the Legal Cell were acquitted. For instance, in the [[2006 Mumbai train bombings|7/11 Mumbai train blasts case]], several Muslim accused who received legal support from the Jamiat were convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment or death, such as Faisal Shaikh and Asif Khan. Similarly, in the [[2010 Pune bombing|2010 Pune German Bakery blast case]], Mirza Himayat Baig, who was aided by the Jamiat, was convicted and sentenced to death in 2013. Same way, several accused were acquitted but many others aided by Jamait Ilema e Hind were convicted of Islamist terrorism in many other cases including [[March 2003 Mumbai bombing|Mulund blast case]], the [[Gateway_of_India#Events_and_incidents|Gateway of India blasts case]], and the [[2011 Mumbai bombings|13/7 Mumbai triple blasts]]. The Institute has also provided legal aid in high-profile cases involving individuals who were later convicted, such as [[Yasin Bhatkal]], co-accused with [[2010 Pune bombing|Mirza Himayat Baig]] in the German Bakery blast, who was also convicted and sentenced to death.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Alam |first1=Mahtab |title=It Takes More Than Guns to Kill a Man |url=https://thewire.in/law/shahid-azmi-eight-death-anniversary |access-date=25 July 2021 |work=The Wire |date=11 February 2018 |quote=At the Jamiat Ulema Hind Maharashtra Legal Cell, a group engaged in providing legal help to the terror accused}}</ref><ref name="newindia">{{cite news |first=Waleed|last=Hussain |title=An innocent man deserves a fair trial: Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind president |url=https://www.newindianexpress.com/nation/2019/may/22/an-innocent-man-deserves-a-fair-trial-jamiat-ulama-i-hind-president-1980207.html |access-date=15 July 2021 |work=New Indian Express}}</ref>
