who is an Islamic Shari’ah scholar from Sri
Lanka.
Shaikh
Abdul Nazar is well known for his versatility, advanced
thinking, novel ideas, moderate views, farsightedness,
honesty, sincerity and straightforwardness and has,
through his writing, oration, lecture and presentation,
contributed enormously to mankind in general and
to Islam and Muslims in particular.

Banking and Insurance, education, teaching methodology
and Arabic Language.
Having
drawn up his own modus operandi to do and deal with
things, he, with the grace of Almighty Allah, excels

and perfection.
Shaikh
Abdul Nazar was the first to have boldly come forward
and revolutionized the Madrasah education and its
management system completely and successfully in
a manner that positively responds to the present
needs of the society in terms of religious guidance
and helps to produce quality Ulama. He stroke a
balance between the conventional system and the
modern system on the basis of ‘beneficial
old and righteous new’.
The
All Ceylon Jamiyyathul Ulama, the religious guiding
body in Sri Lanka, was absolutely transformed only
when Shaikh Abdul Nazar took over its destinies
as General Secretary. After that only, this religious
institution saw tremendous progress, spread its
activities throughout the Island, gained popularity
and became people-friendly.
In
order to enable all across the globe to have access
to and benefit from such a brilliant and modest
scholar, this site is developed and operated by
a brother close to his heart.
