Library Allama Syed Sulaiman Nadwi

Library

A library has been established in Darul Uloom Tajul Masajid from the very beginning. This library was first established in the north hall of the mosque and later this library was shifted to a permanent building. It is said that this library has now become the largest library in Madhya Pradesh in terms of religious resources. This library has an excellent collection of knowledge and it contains valuable books of great historical and artistic importance. The books are preserved and are kept in such a beautiful arrangement that all the scholars and tasteful people look at it with appreciation and liking. The books are arranged according to their subject and all the recent catalogues and magazines can be found here at the library. In addition to that, the furniture, light and air, completion of registers, maintenance of library and observance of rules and regulations are also practiced at the library. To avail the benefits of this grand library, one needs a membership which can be obtained at Darul Uloom. The membership is open to all lovers of books both domestically and nationally.

The members of Auqaf-e-Shahi have also given considerable amount of time and attention to the upkeep of this library. Therefore, this ancient valuable library is now the hallmark of Darul Uloom Tajul Masajid.

The maintenance, addition and updating work keeps on going at the library.

By the Grace of Almighty Allah, the library is now home to more than 25,000 books in which the majority of them are in Arabic language. Books in Urdu and Persian are also there and English books are relatively low in number. The range of the books cover topics is as vast as literature, art, culture and religion.
