WORLD’S PAST ULAMA
(May Allah s.w.t bless their souls)
(arranged according to death dates)
Last updated: 11/8/2005
The ulama are the
torchbearers of Islam. Thousands of them exist in any one time. Some of them
are well known but some prefer to do their work quietly. The following is an
attempt to list down some of the well-known contemporary ulama according to
their death dates. Since this is an on-going project, the list will surely
grow, insya Allah. Hence, any suggestions, additions and corrections are very
much welcomed.
