History

Mumtaz Ahmed Khan is the founder of Al-Ameen Educational Society.[4][5] At the age of 31, in 1966 Khan founded the Al-Ameen Movement. He had decided to name it The Bangalore Educational Society. He was advised against this by his friend Khader Hussein who suggested Al-Ameen Educational Society as a reference to the title given to Prophet Muhammad which meant The Trustworthy. Hussein later became the principle of Saboo Siddiq Polytechnic, Bombay. Abbasiya Begum, a female member of the Karnataka Legislative Council was elected the first chairperson of this society.

A number of social workers supported him for starting and establishing around 20 branches of Al-Ameen Educational Society and 200 institutions throughout India.

gollark: The rest of `pastebin` is mostly just argument parsing. Well, and handling other stuff like `put` and `run`.
gollark: The *important* bit is just that it downloads the *raw* file from pastebin, then writes it to startup.
gollark: ```lualocal function update() local h, err = http.get("https://pastebin.com/raw/whatever") if not h then printError(err) return end local f = fs.open("startup", "w") f.write(h.readAll()) f.close() h.close()end```
gollark: You could use the idea of it instead of downloading it using `pastebin`, I mean.
gollark: Was there an issue with my directly HTTP-using code?
