Sheikh Abubakr Ahmad

Kanthapuram A. P. Aboobacker Musliyar

Among the most revered Islamic scholars of contemporary India, Sheikh Abubakr Ahmad — widely known as Kanthapuram Musliyar — is a towering authority in Islamic jurisprudence, education, and inter-faith harmony. His presence as Patron of Assaquafa has lent the institution an unparalleled spiritual legitimacy.

It was his blessed hands that laid the foundation stone of Assaquafa in 1998, transforming an aspiration into a living reality. His ongoing guidance continues to inform the institution's curriculum, its character, and its commitment to moderation, knowledge, and service.

Thiruvathapura Yousuf Saquafi

Nayib Qazi of Kadmat Island

The heart and driving force behind Assaquafa, Thiruvathapura Yousuf Saquafi is a scholar of rare combination — deeply learned in the Islamic sciences, yet keenly attuned to the practical needs of a remote island community.

His founding vision was rooted in a recognition that quality Islamic education should not be the privilege of the mainland alone. Through years of sustained dedication he built a centre of learning that has become indispensable to the cultural and spiritual identity of Kadmat Island.
