Jamia-e-Imania was established as a Shia Religious Seminary for extended Islamic studies and higher religious education on 15 December 1866/1283 (A.H.) in the city of Banaras (Varanasi) India. It was founded by Moulvi Khursheed Ali Khan,on the proposal of Qaazi Maulana Syed Bande Ali Khan the last Qaazi-ul-Quzaat (Islamic chief justice) of Banaras. He provided land for this purpose and the construction was completed under his supervision in 1870/1287(A.H.).
Jamia-e-Imania is the first and the oldest academic center of Shia Muslims in the Indian sub-continent. It is an educational, non-profit, charitable institution serving the community continuously for over a century and a half. It has produced a large number of religious scholars, preachers, professors, authors, orators (khatibs), poets (shayars) and religious activists.
There was a period of 30/40 years while it suffered from many unpleasant situations and saw some setbacks but it was re-established and rejuvenated by Maulana Syed Mohammad Al-Husaini in 1983 and very soon it was back to its previous position with his efforts and presently it is on the way of rapidly progress under his leadership.
