Of the learned men to whom the responsible task of educating the young alumni of the college was entrusted, we hear only of two. There was Maulānā Jalāluddīn Rūmī,² the renowned master of many subjects, who used to lecture on theology, explain to the students the Fiqh (jurisprudence) and the commentaries on the Qur'ān, and teach them the time-honoured traditions. The other professor was a great religious teacher, and had hailed from Samarqand.
