Anjuman Wazifa-e-Sadat-wa-Momineen was established in 1912 with a modest capital of Rs. 4.50 (72 Annas) by two eminent educationists Late Haji S. Jalaluddin Haider and Late Nawab S. Mohsin Meerza. The object was to award loan scholarships (Qarz-e-Hasna) to needy, deserving and meritorious students of the community to pursue religious or temporal studies, repayable without interest in easy instalments after settlement.
Over time, the Anjuman has benefited more than nine thousand students. Many have gone on to become Engineers, Doctors, Lawyers, Teachers, Administrators, Judges, Writers, Bankers, Philosophers, Alim‑e‑Deen and even Ministers.
The Anjuman celebrated its centenary in 2012. Its income sources include membership fees, nominated funds and loan recoveries from beneficiaries. The Anjuman is committed to reaching every needy and deserving student through scholarship support.
The Anjuman humbly appeals to the community members to join and support the organization. You may start a nominated (Namzad) fund in memory of a loved one, become a local secretary, or help identify needy students. We seek your active support!

Beside this, the idea behind this provision is that the scholarship holders should develop a sense of pride and self-confidence, also develop a sense of responsibility for helping their community to become self-respecting. Anjuman Wazifa-e-sadat-wa-mommineen (Regd) has its own constitution and bye-laws framed under it. The highest body of the Anjuman is its Karkun Committee. Its office bearers are elected every year in its Annual Session. Anjuman Wazifa-e-sadat-wa-mommineen has 117 local secretaries in various cities of India and abroad.
