Early life and family

Ghazi Ruhul Amin was born on 12 March 1962 to a Bengali Muslim Ghazi family in the village of Gowhardanga in Tungipara, Gopalganj, then part of East Pakistan's Faridpur district. His father was the Islamic scholar Shamsul Haque Faridpuri and they trace their paternal ancestry to an Arab soldier who was one of the members of Bakhtiyar Khalji's army during his conquest of Bengal, hence the name of his clan is Ghazi. His ancestors settled in Jessore where they propagated Islam to locals with his grandfather's great-grandfather, Mawlana Abdul Awwal al-Ghazi, relocating the family to Faridpur.[3] Ruhul Amin's grandfather's grandfather, Chand Ghazi, was a student of Syed Ahmad Shaheed and took part in the Battle of Balakot against the Sikhs. His grandfather, Muhammad Abdullah ibn Chiragh Ali, was a munshi and participant of the Indian Rebellion of 1857.[4] [5]

Education

He studied at the Jamia Islamia Darul Uloom Khademul Islam in Gowhardanga, where he completed his hifz and Hadith (Masters) at Daora and Ifta.[6]

Career

Ruhul Amin has been the Muhtamim (vice chancellor) of Gowhardanga Madrasa since 2003. He is the President of Befaqul Madarisil Qawmia Gowhardanga Bangladesh and a permanent member of Al-Haiatul Ulya Lil-Jamiatil Qawmia Bangladesh, the highest authority of Qawmi Madrasa. On 31 March 2022, he was nominated Khatib of Baitul Mukarram National Mosque. He is the Governor of the Board of Government of the Islamic Foundation Bangladesh.[7] [8]

He is the editor of the monthly Al-Ashraf. He assisted the court as Amicus Curiae, the country's top scholar in ruling on the validity of the fatwa. He was expecting the nomination of Awami League from Narail-1 constituency in the Eleventh Parliamentary Election. He was instrumental in the official recognition of the Qawmi Madrasa Charter.[9]
