Maulana Mohammed Fazlur Rahim Mujaddidi was born on 22nd June, 1957. He is the son and Successor of the great Sufi scholar and educationist Hazrat Maulana Shah Mohammad Abdur Rahim Mujaddidi and successor of another great Sufi Hazrat Maulana Shah Hidayat Ali Mujaddidi. These great men had a dream to establish an educational institution whose students would be inculcated with the required competence and potential to perform their duties both in the religious and worldly matters. This dream was fulfilled in the form of ‘Jamea-Tul-Hidaya’ the first residential Islamic University, which introduced technical and modern education in Madrasas. The foundation stone of the University was laid in 1976 and the university started its full-fledged education system in 1986. 

            In 1996, realising the need of modern primary education, he floated another Trust named “Maulana Abdur Rahim Educational Trust” and started working on a series of English Medium Schools named “Imam Rabbani Public School”. The schools are recognized by the State Government Educational Board. 

In 2001, realizing the need to increase Muslim Representation in Indian Administration, an independent body the “Crescent Academy for Civil Services Exams” was formed. 

 In 2002, the Foundation for Civil Liberties, a Human Rights Organization was formed for Human rights and Judicial Redress. The same year, the first Center, Crescent Academy Aligarh, was established. He set up 3 new centers at Delhi and Lucknow. Under the mass awareness program for Civil Services Exams he started “Talent Hunt Programme” and in 2006, the “Strive for Educational Enhancement” (SEE) was formed for the cause of modern primary to senior secondary education.

He has been vigilantly keeping an eye on the various government schemes for the minorities.
