Samastha Kerala Islamic Education Board (known as Samastha Kerala Islam Matha Vidhyabhyasa Board) runs a primary religious education programme that has more than ten thousand Madrasas under it. Understanding the requirement of a sub organization exclusively to focus on imparting primary islamic education, Samastha Kerala Jam'iyyathul Ulama (S. K. J. U.)formed Samastha Kerala Islam Matha Vidhyabhyasa Board (SKIMVB). The board carried out its main objective of setting op madrassas across the state from its very initial stage and the educational system was made systematic through the preparation of syllabus for students until 12th grade and students found time to attend madrassas along with their regular schooling. It was in 1952 the board called applications for madrassa recognition and recognized 10 madrassas that year. [11]
