IMARAT - E - SHARIAH, Vijayawada Andhra Pradesh is a unique and un-paralleled socio religious organization of Muslim Ummah in the state of Andhra Pradesh, in particular and other parts of the country in general and is situated in the township of Vijayawada Andhra Pradesh, (India). It came in to existence in the year 2016 based on the cardinal principles of Islam and its Shariah laws. It is a universally accepted reality that Islam is a complete code of life, the latest order to be followed by human being as ordained by the Almighty Allah. It does not prescribe only the ways and process of individual worship and prayer to be adopted by its followers rather the laws of Shariah which is based on principles of collectivism; it covers all human activities in the religious, social, cultural and political fields. There is no place for individual life in Islam. The study of the Holy Quran and the life of our beloved Prophet Hazrat Mohammad صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم expressly reveal that the principle of collective life is the living sprit and is an axis around which the entire Islamic order revolves. As a matter of fact this distinct characteristic of Islam distinguishes it from all other religions and it is also not a secret that the teaching of our beloved Prophet Hazrat Mohammad صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم and its adoption by his followers brought about a sea change in the lives, behavior, thought and approach of the barbaric and savage Arabian tribes. The Century old enmity and hatred prevalent among different tribes were transformed into mutual cooperation, brotherly love and oneness on the basis of the pristine Kalimah

لا الٰہ الا اللہ محمد رسول اللہ

The very spirit of oneness based on leading a collective life was the main force that enabled Muslims to take the message of Almighty Allah in the different parts of the world and to effect the establishment of Islamic order over the vast lands of Asia, Africa and Europe. After the revolution of 1857 and with the beginning of the downfall of the Mughal Empire in India, the Ulamas and Islamic scholars of the day, in view of circumstances prevalent, were compelled to find out a suitable system on the basis of which Muslims in India should have a platform through which their social, cultural, religious lives and activities could be managed, controlled and guided in the light of Shariah laws. Collectivism is possible under a central power in an Islamic state, where the central force has been the Khalifa (Caliph). But in non Islamic countries, an organization based on Shariah Laws under one Ameer (Chief) who by virtue of his respectable status commands following among the Muslims, is essentially required to be elected by the Muslims, to educate, inspire and to guide the Muslim Ummah to enable them to lead a collective life under Islamic order.

Keeping in view the necessity of such an organization Hazrat Maulana Abul Mohasin Mohammad Sajjad رحمۃ اللہ علیہ ,In Andhra Pradesh Hazrat Maulana Mufti Khalid Saifulla Rehmani initiated very painstaking efforts, with the support of the great Ulamas of the day to establish an organization of Muslims for the aforesaid purpose. Ultimately in the year 1921, a conference was organized under the leadership of the great scholar, freedom fighter and philanthropist Maulana Abul Kalam Azadرحمۃ اللہ علیہ, a devoted nationalist and first education minister of independent India. The important distinguished guests among the participants were Moulana Hameeduddin Aqil Husami رحمۃ اللہ علیہ, . Since then this organization has been rendering valuable services for the preaching of Islam, besides inspiring and guiding the Muslim Ummah for leading a collective life under the Shariah Laws.

IMARAT - E - SHARIAH is serving in various fields of education, welfare relief and rehabilitation for more than 23 States consecutive years around the three states Andhra Pradesh The main objectives of IMARAT - E - SHARIAH is to provide justice to the suffering humanity in the light of Shariah, to provide thorough education, to teach them to inspire mankind to be humane in their thought and action as desired and ordained by the Almighty Allah.

As you know that in Islam it is very important to serve the people and help the poor, widows, orphans and needy people. In prophetic period the system of "Baitulmal" was established for this purpose and thorough it the needy people used to cooperate. Keeping it in view IMARAT - E - SHARIAH has also the system of Baitulmal from its earlier period and thousands of poor, widows and orphans take its advantage. Baitul Mal is the most important part of IMARAT - E - SHARIAH that collects Zakat and donations etc. from the Muslims and disburses the collected funds among the needy people.

It also provides aid in the marriages of poor girls. Especially in the month of Ramadan, we organize such kinds of programme at various parts of state and outside state. The other important activity of IMARAT - E - SHARIAH is Darul Qaza where the justice is being given in various cases related to Muslim Personal Law according to the Islamic Shariah. Darul Ifta is also an important part of IMARAT - E - SHARIAH where legal opinions are given according to Quran and Hadees in various matters related to Mulims. Nobody can deny the importance of education and that is why the Prophet (Saw) said that it is an obligation to achieve education for every Muslim- man or woman.
