PEDAGOGY MCQS (EDUCATION IN SUB-CONTINENT)

The correct answer is Maulana M. Ali Mangheri because he was appointed as the foundational administrator (Nazim) when this prominent educational and religious institution was established in the sub-continent.

• Maulana M. Ali Mangheri: This is the correct choice. When Nadwatul Ulama was established in 1894 to bridge the gap between traditional religious education (like Deoband) and modern Western education (like Aligarh), Maulana Muhammad Ali Mangheri served as its very first active administrator and manager, driving its early organizational framework.


• Incorrect Options:
  
  
  
  • Maulana Shibli Nomani: This is incorrect. While he was a monumental scholar closely associated with Nadwatul Ulama who later served as its educational director and brought it global renown, he was not the first administrative leader.
  
  
  • Sir Syed Ahmad Khan: This is incorrect. He was the pioneering leader of the Aligarh Movement, focusing his efforts on establishing the Muhammadan Anglo-Oriental College (which later became Aligarh Muslim University).
  
  
  • Maulana Ali Johar: This is incorrect. He was a prominent leader of the Khilafat Movement and an instrumental founder of Jamia Millia Islamia, rather than the founder or first administrator of Nadwa.
