Myqyyath Sha Sirguro Wakf Board College came into being at a time when education at the collegiate level was inaccessible to the downtrodden and the less fortunate of the students who had neither means nor clout to pull enough strings to gain access into colleges. Muqyyth Sha Sirguro Wakf Board College was God-send, and answer to their prayers.In 1967, a dispute between Janab, Isthiak Sha Sahib Sirguro and the Tamil Nadu Wakf Board over a stretch of valuable property was resolved under a compromise decree passed by the Madras High Court in A.S.No.435 of 1964 and it was decided to set up a college in the city Madurai. Honourable Kadayanallur Abdul Mazith Sahib, the then Minister for Local Administration has sown the seeds for starting the college by allotting the necessary funds for land acquisition and by extending unstinted support.

Fully realizing the need of the hour, Janab. M.Heera Sahib and Janab. M. Abdul Khader Sahib, the two dynamic social workers and indefatigable campaigners for higher education, plunged themselves into the task of transforming the vision of starting a college into a reality.
