Kamil degree
The Kamil examination (Arabic: اختبار كامل) is the highest government exam for Alia Madrasa students in Bangladesh. According to the policy, it is considered equivalent to the post-graduate degree of general education in Bangladesh. In 1907, the British government first allowed the Calcutta Alia Madrasa to open a three-year title class (post-graduate) through the Calcutta Conference. In 1915, Pir Allama Shah Sufi Nesaruddin Ahmad established the first Charshina Darussunnat Kamil Madrasa in Bangladesh, which is also widely known as Sarshina Madrasa throughout the country. After 1947, this name gradually became popular in Bangladesh as Kamil Class or Kamil Exam. Currently, the number of Kamil Madrasas in Bangladesh is 215 in 2019. All Kamil and Fazil Madrasas in Bangladesh are affiliated with the Islamic Arabic University.
