BRIEF HISTORY OF THE SCHOOL
 
Let me logically tell the story of the school, in three stages.
 
COMMENCEMENT STAGE
At the time of commencement in 1995, there were very few Muslim schools, so our children attended Christian schools where they were taught songs and clapped as if they were in the church. This situation was the driving force that brought the idea and the concept of having a Muslim school where the right orientation of Islam can be passed with adequate attention paid to the needed Western education. The idea was blessed, fleshed and developed as I discussed with my wife to be then, Miss Nurat Dabiri who had a teaching experience.
 
The big problem was however how to secure suitable venue considering the cost of accommodation around Somolu. The mosques were our last resort as they were the first centre of knowledge. Alhamdulillah, the beautiful idea was explained to the Istijabah Mosques Committee and after much deliberation, clarification and consideration, we were gladly given the go-ahead to use the mosque as our centre.
 
At this juncture, I should mention few names of eminent personalities who aided the securing and utility of the mosque among the m were Late Alhaji T.N.A. Korodo, Chairman Mosque Committee, Alhaji Aralawon, Secretary Mosque Committee, Mr. Olaiya, Welfare/Social Secretary, Mr. Adeleke, Mr. Musliudeen Daud and many others.
 
THE DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE
Within a few years, our school that started with just six children grew from leaps to bounds. We received commendable patronage from the hosting mosque members, which boosted our morale. By 1999, the population of the school had grown beyond the capacity of the mosque., Some of our pupils were coming as far as Surulere. With the cooperation of some of these parents, notably, Mrs. Bakare, we were able to secure a temporary space as an annex of the school at Surulere. This indeed marked another turning point in the history of our school. Both schools were coordinated by our active and dedicated teachers whom space will not permit to list, but allow me to mention Mr. AbdulWaheed Ismail, Prince AbdulMujeeb Ogungbayi, Mr Tajudeen Salahudeen, Dr. Sulaimon Muse who at one time or the other headed the winning team of the school.
 
Our school had presented over 2000 pupils both national and state common entrance examination with excellent results, participated in several competitions with overwhelming victories, and so many extra curriculum activities.
To crown the numerous achievements of the school, by the year 2000, our secondary school was established with the name MIMS Comprehensive College (M.C.C.). The College got WAEC and NECO approval in 2008 and it has graduated over 800 students.
 
THE FUTURE
We are assiduously working to complete our ultimate goal that is transformation of the children from childhood to adolescence into an embodiment of knowledge filled with Allah’s piety and beneficial to all and sundry. Our school is aimed at raising the future leaders to their pristine heights. This we know, is only possible when we grow up into tertiary institution, be it college of education, polytechnic or ultimately, a university. Our hope is that with your continuous support and assistance, the sky is the beginning.
 
Thank you.
