(1934- 2022)
Maulana Abdul Aleem Islahi was born in Azamgarh district of Utter Pradesh, India. He pursued his higher education at Madarsatul Islah, a prestigious Islamic seminary. Following his formal studies, he began his teaching career as the principal of Mazhr-ul-Uloom in Uttar Pradesh. He also briefly served at Darul Musannefin Shibli Academy, where he taught "Hujjat Allah al-Balighah" - a significant work of Shah Wali Allah of Delhi.
Maulana Abdul Aleem Islahi was an active member of Jamat-e-Islami Hind. Unfortunately, after fifty years of membership in the organization, he was expelled from it when he published his book ‘Milat Key Difa Ka Masla'. Despite his expulsion, he didn't stop amr bil ma'ruf wa nahi 'anil munkar and continued his constructive criticize of Jamaat e Islami Hind. He denounced Jamaat e Islami Hind's participation in democratic elections, which he referred to as "Taghoot" and for abandoning the methodology of Islam based on Dawat, Hisbah, Hijrat and Jihad. He authored many books and pamphlets in Urdu to preserve Islamic ideology following the footsteps of Maulana Abul Ala Maududi and Ustad Sayyid Qutb.
