Madrasa Rahimiyya was an Islamic teaching centre located in Delhi. It was founded by Shah Abdur Rahim during 18th century.[1] Shah Abdur Rahim was the father of Shah Waliullah. After the death of Shah Abdur Rahim in 1715 Shah Waliullah Dehlawi started teaching at the Madrassa. It played a leading role in teaching Islam to other people. Later, when Shah Wali Ullah died, his sons Shah Rafi and Shah Abdul Qader began teaching here.[2][3]
