Imam Hossain Choudhury
Imam (; ar, إمام '; plural: ') is an Islamic leadership position. For Sunni Muslims, Imam is most commonly used as the title of a worship leader of a mosque.

Abdur Rob (judge)
ʻAbd al-Rabb (ALA-LC romanization of ar, عبد الرب) is a male Muslim given name, and in modern usage, surname. It is built from the Arabic words '' ʻabd'' and ''al-Rabb''. The name means "servant of the Lord", a Muslim theophoric name. Because the letter ''r'' is a sun letter, the letter ''l'' of the ''al-'' is assimilated to it. Thus although the name is written in Arabic with letters corresponding to ''Abd al-Rab'', the usual pronunciation corresponds to ''Abd ar-Rab''. Alternative transliterations include ''‘Abd ar-Rabb'', ''Abdul Rab'', and others, all subject to variable spacing and hyphenation. It may refer to: People with the given name *Abdur Rab Nishtar (1899–1958), Pakistani politician *Abdurabb Al Yazeedi (born 1988), Qatari footballer *Abdur Rab Jaunpuri ʿAbd ar-Rabb Jaunpūrī ( ur, , bn, আব্দুর রব জৌনপুরী; 1875 – June 1935) was an Indian Muslim scholar, author and teacher.
