Manarat Dhaka -3rd Cousin of Manarat Alumni

Manarat Dhaka is located in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Guys you might be tempted ok nice so just the name. Surprising Manarat Dhaka Alumni were similar in many ways and honest like us Manarat Jeddah Alumni or from Manarat schools in Saudi Arabia. I am taking about perspective about general philosophy. All school with Manarat prefix in their names are Islamic. I mean no school that starts with Manarat and us opposite of core philosophy. The location of Manarat Dhaka is in Dhaka, Bangladesh. It was founded in 1978 by help of Saudi Ambassador Mr.  Sheikh Fouad  Abdul Hameed Khateeb and mainly some distinguished gentleman of the country including  Mr. Shah Abdul Hannan (late).

(Admin). Thought there ought to be a Manarat Islamabad but there is not. Objective being making students who are of  Quality  Honest
