History
Prior to its establishment, there was a small, old, private Madrassah of the Anjuman-e-Islamia which existed in Naiyorpul.
In 1933, the madrasa became one of Dacca Secondary Education Board's New Scheme High Madrasas. Two years later, Abu Nasr Wahid helped the madrasa achieve Kamil status, making it first in the country to do so.
