Farangi Mahall
Farangi Mahall is a traditional madrasa in Lucknow (Lucknow), Uttar Pradesh , India . A comprehensive learning curve was imparted to her, "which qualified for all intellectual professions". At the beginning of the 18th century, a canon of teaching was developed there by representatives of the Qadiri order , the so-called Dars-i Nizami , which over time spread throughout South Asia. The main focus of the training was logic, philosophy and law. In principle, this teaching canon was regarded as an efficient and fast training with the aim of good analytical skills in order to integrate the graduates into offices in the state apparatus (especially administration and judiciary).
As proof of the high level of learning it is stated that the "manuals used for religious instruction are the product of famous Persians of bygone times or of members of the Firangi Mahal or their pupils".
Lucknow was, next to the Delhi school, the Indian center for Islamic religious sciences: fiqh, usul-e-fiqh, the Koran and kalam; in addition, various other sciences were pursued.
