Scholarship Overview

Official Announcement

The scheme was announced by the Auqaf, Hajj, Religious & Minority Affairs Department, Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, for students enrolled in registered Deeni Madaris across the province. It is aimed at madrassah students pursuing advanced religious education — Aalia, Alimiyah and Takhassus levels — and both male and female students can apply.

• Scheme: Rahmatul-lil-Alameen Scholarship, session 2026-27
• Announced by: Auqaf, Hajj, Religious & Minority Affairs Department, Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
• Application channel: KP Scholarships Portal (Auqaf Department) — online applications only; always use the official portal, never a forwarded link from WhatsApp or social media

Eligibility Criteria

All four conditions must hold. Miss one and the application is rejected — so check them in order before you touch the portal:

How to Apply — Complete Step-by-Step Method

This scholarship is ONLINE ONLY. There is no paper form, no bank challan, no walk-in interview. The whole application runs on the KP Scholarships Portal. Follow these steps in order:

Step 1: Confirm Your Eligibility (5 minutes)

• Confirm your madrassah is a registered Deeni Madrassah in KP — ask your madrassah office if you’re not sure
• Confirm your level: Aalia, Alimiyah or Takhassus
• Check your last result card: 59.99% or above
• Confirm you hold a permanent KP domicile
• If all four boxes tick, move on. If not, stop here — the system will reject the application anyway

Step 2: Gather & Scan Your Documents

• CNIC (or B-Form if you don’t have a CNIC yet) — clear scan, front and back
• KP domicile certificate — must match your CNIC details
• Income certificate — get this from the relevant authority
• Last exam transcript / result card — showing your percentage
• Recent photograph — plain background, as the portal asks
• Scan everything in daylight at good resolution (PDF or JPG, legible text). Blurry uploads are a common reason for rejection — if you can’t read your own scan, neither can the verifier
• Name the files clearly: “CNIC-front.jpg”, “Domicile.pdf”, etc. — it saves confusion during upload

Step 3: Register on the KP Scholarships Portal

• Open the KP Scholarships Portal (Auqaf Department) in a proper browser — Chrome on a phone works, but a computer is safer
• Create your account with an active mobile number and email you actually check — OTPs and updates come there
• Type your name, CNIC number and date of birth exactly as printed on your CNIC. A spelling mismatch between form and document is the single most common avoidable rejection
• Save your login details somewhere safe — you’ll need them again to track your application

Step 4: Fill the Form & Upload Documents

• Select the Rahmatul-lil-Alameen Scholarship 2026-27 scheme from the scholarship list
• Fill personal, domicile and educational details carefully — re-read every field against your documents before moving on
• Upload each scanned document into its correct slot. Don’t upload your CNIC into the “transcript” field — the portal won’t correct you, a human reviewer will reject you
• Enter your madrassah’s name and registration details accurately
• Preview the complete form once. Twice if it’s your first online scholarship application

Step 5: Confirm Your Submission & Keep Proof

• If you submitted before October 14, 2026, make sure of the following
• Screenshot the submission confirmation page and save any application/reference number the portal shows
• Save or download the confirmation SMS/email if one arrives
• Log back in a day later and check that your application shows as submitted, not “draft” — drafts don’t count

Grant Breakdown — What Rs. 100,000 Means Here

Unlike stipend programs that pay monthly, this is a one-time lump-sum grant. Here’s the plain picture:

A one-time Rs. 100,000 grant can cover a full year of books, madrassah dues, travel and living costs for a student — which is exactly why this scheme is competitive. Apply like it matters, because it does.

Document Checklist — Tick Before You Submit

Pro Tips — What Other Sites Won’t Tell You

• If you applied, confirm it counts: log back into the portal and make sure your application shows as submitted, not “draft”. A draft is the same as no application.
• Double-check your madrassah’s registration status first: this is the silent killer of applications. Students assume their madrassah is registered, apply, and get rejected. One phone call to your madrassah office settles it.
• Keep all scanned documents ready in one folder before opening the portal — CNIC, domicile, income certificate, result card, photo. Mid-form document hunting is where mistakes happen.
• Screenshot everything: the filled form, the upload page, and especially the submission confirmation with your reference number. If anything goes wrong later, this is your evidence.
• Match your documents exactly: name spelling, father’s name, CNIC number — the form and the documents must tell the same story, letter for letter.
• Check “submitted”, not “draft”: log back in after submitting and confirm the status reads submitted. A draft application is the same as no application.
