I dont get it. Those links are about DarulUlum Online, which is "an affiliate of Darul Uloom Waqf Deoband, an independent institution" according to their website.
But my question is, what is this "independant institution" called "DarulUloom Waqf Deoband"?

[The Fake Shaykh]

my mistake, from what i remember when i was there is there are two darulooms there, (both follow same beliefs)1 is the original daruloom(the big one) and the other one is an offshoot set up in 1977 by molana salim qasmi (darulooom deoband waqf) correct me if im wrong

WOW, look what i found after "googling" about a bit:

A quote from that link is:
"This is a sad commentary on the state of affairs of deeni institutions but the fact is that the residents of Deoband sarcastically refer to madarsas of Deoband as family businesses and some times call them as three empires of Deoband meaning Darul Uloom Deoband, Darul Uloom Waqf and Madarsa Asgharia. While the world outside Deoband has some knowledge about the comfortable lives of the authorities of Darul Uloom Deoband and Darul Uloom Waqf, very few have any idea about the low profile authorities of Madarsa Asgharia which is virtually a family business with no outside interference or transparency. Over the last few years from building a mosque in a graveyard to encroaching land in Mohalla Qila and bribing the police for protection they have done anything illegal. The contributions of Muslims from within India and abroad are being used by the newly upstarts to act like the old zamindars."

That doesnt sound very nice.

PLEASE CAN SOMEONE SHED SOME LIGHT ON THIS!!

Jazakallah Kairan Fake shaykh for the information.

Dar al-Ulum Deoband Waqf was formed mainly due to administrative reasons and had nothing at all to do with family business or anything of that sort. It is nothing for us to worry about; the old Dar al-Ulum Deoband still has most of the resources and teachers, and is still healthy and active, while the Waqf madrasa is also a legitimate school where one can study.
