The Tirurangadi Muslim Orphanage Committee (Regd.) occupies an important place in the history of Kerala with its meritorious record of sincere service to the suffering humanity in various fields of social, religious, educational and intellectual activities for about seven decades. In 1943, a terrible outbreak of cholera epidemic played widespread havoc in South Malabar. Hundreds of children were orphaned with no one to take care of them. It was at this juncture realizing the gravity of the situation certain selfless, philanthropic intelligentsia of this area rose to the occasion and constituted the Tirurangadi Muslim Orphanage Committee at Tirurangadi, Malappuram Dist., Kerala state, South India in order to look after the orphans and destitutes, to impart religious, secular and vocational education and training to them. Late K.M Moulavi Sahib, Late M.K. Haji Sahib and Late K.M Seethi Sahib were in the forefront of those who gave inspiring heroic leadership to this noble venture. They have preeminent place in the history of Malabar as social reformers and religious servants. They were kindred spirits who worked in close co-operation with one another for the noble cause of Muslim Socio-religious regeneration.

Today, the Tirurangadi Muslim Orphanage Committee has struggled hard and journeyed a long way to attain its present sublime status, with a well run and well kept orphanage by name "Tirurangadi Yatheem Khana", known for its determination and dedication for providing the students with uncompromising quality of education incorporating ethical and moral values, made possible through much hardships and trials earlier and was able to make its mark in this field, winning a wider acceptance and acclaim in the whole of Malabar and outside.
