Islamic Foundation Bangladesh is an autonomous organization in Bangladesh working to disseminate values and ideals of Islam and carry out activities related to those values and ideals.
History
In 1959, two organizations were fromed in Dhaka, Bangladesh to propagate the teachings and following of Islam. The Baitul Mukarram Society built the Baitul Mukarram mosque and Islamic scholars formed a Darul ulum (Arabic: دار العلوم; house of knowledge) to popularize and research on Islamic philosophy, culture and way of life. In 1960, the Darul ulum was renamed as Islamic Academy and was made a branch of Karachi-based Central Islamic Research Institute.
The Islamic Academy was briefly banned in 1972 for alleged support for the Pakistani Army against the Awami League. The academy has been blamed for working to Islamize politics in Bangladesh.
