History

Islamic prophet Muhammad made it equally incumbent, upon every Muslim man and woman, to pursue knowledge.[7] In the Dawoodi Bohras community, both religious and secular education is highly valued. The community has a very high rate of literacy and there is no disparity between the opportunities to learn between boys or girls.[7] As part of this philosophy, MSB Educational Institute teaches an integrated syllabus of sciences, humanities, languages, and theological subjects with equal numbers of girls and boys.[8]

In 2017, Mufaddal Saifuddin inaugurated the MSB branch in Kuwait, which is largest MSB branch in the world at 1600 students.[9]

Campuses

As of 2022, there are 24 branches of MSB worldwide with 12,013 students.[10]
