What is Befaqul Madarisil Arabia Bangladesh?
Befaqul Madarisil Arabia Bangladesh — commonly known as Befaq or Wifaq — is the largest Qawmi madrasa education board in Bangladesh. It was established to bring a unified and standardized system of Arabic and Islamic education across thousands of privately run madrasas throughout the country. Every year, Befaq holds a central examination for all its affiliated madrasas — and the result determines a student’s academic standing within the Qawmi education system.
It is important to understand that Qawmi madrasas operate separately from Alia madrasas. Alia madrasas follow a government-approved syllabus under the Bangladesh Madrasah Education Board, while Qawmi madrasas follow their own traditional Islamic curriculum — with Befaq as the certifying body. The Government of Bangladesh has officially granted equivalence to Befaq’s Takmil degree, making it recognized for certain government job applications. Currently, Befaq oversees approximately 29,327 affiliated madrasas and conducts exams across more than 2,000 exam centers across the country.
Befaq Board Grading System & Mark Distribution
Unlike mainstream education boards in Bangladesh that use GPA, Befaq follows a four-tier division system using Arabic grade terminology. Your final result is classified based on total percentage scored across all subjects.
The highest grade is Mumtaz — Distinction — awarded for scoring 80% or above. Just below is Jayyid Jidda (Very Good / First Division) for 70% to 79%, followed by Jayyid (Good / Second Division) for 55% to 69%. The minimum passing grade is Maqbul (Pass / Third Division), requiring 40% to 54%. Scoring below 40% results in Rasib — fail.
| Division | Arabic Term | Marks Required |
|---|---|---|
| Star / Distinction | Mumtaz | 80% or above |
| First Division | Jayyid Jidda | 70% – 79% |
| Second Division | Jayyid | 55% – 69% |
| Third Division / Pass | Maqbul | 40% – 54% |
| Fail | Rasib | Below 40% |
