Students of Markazu Tharbiyathul Islamiya, Valanchery, following the Wafy and Wafiya curriculum of the Coordination of Islamic Colleges (CIC) were denied entry into the campus to take their semester examinations on Saturday.
Markazu Tharbiyathul Islamiya has been the flagship institution of the CIC. The students were denied entry into the campus as ordered by Markaz secretary Hamzakutty Musliar, who is a member of the Mushawara, the core group of senior scholars within the Samastha Kerala Jamiyyathul Ulama, the largest body of Islamic scholars in the State.
Several institutions following the CIC curriculum has been facing ‘harassments and threats’ from the Samastha ever since the CIC fell out with the Samastha and its leadership.
