Darul Uloom Haqqania or Jamia Dar al-Ulum Haqqania (Urdu: دار العلوم حقانیہ) is an Islamic Seminary (darul uloom or madrasa) in the town of Akora Khattak, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, northwestern Pakistan. The seminary propagates the Hanafi Deobandi school of Sunni Islam. It was founded by Maulana Abdul Haq along the lines of the Darul Uloom Deoband seminary in India, where he had taught. It has been dubbed the "University of Jihad" due to its methods and content of instruction, along with the future occupations of its alumni.[2] A number of leading members of the Taliban, including past chief Akhtar Mansour, studied here.[3][4][5]
