📅 5 May 1931 📍 Algeria

Algerian scholars founded the Association of Algerian Muslim Ulama, which built schools, promoted Arabic-language learning, and defended Islamic and Algerian cultural life under colonial pressure. Its work was a form of social and intellectual institution-building. The movement had diverse political positions over time; its educational and reform activity cannot be reduced to a single nationalist programme.
