"I just thought we’ve seen so many serious intense romantic films on the theme of reincarnation, you know Madhumati, Karz etc...why not a funny take on punar-janam? That was my idea. I shared it with my story writers. I thought they would take at least a year or two to crack it. But they came up with a terrific plot within no time. So yeah, here we are all set to do a rip-roaring take on reincarnation. We are looking ahead at making the most expensive comedy ever to come from our production house".<ref>{{cite web

==Early life and education==

Maulana Abul Kalam Muhammad Yusuf hailed from the village of Rajair (Sarankhala), Bagerhat district in Bangladesh. He completed his primary education from his village school and later from a school at Rayenda. His secondary level schooling was completed from Galua [[Madrasa]] [[Barisal]], followed by the Sharshina Aliya Madrasa and finally Amtali Madrasa in Barisal, where he began his education in ''nahw'' and ''sarf'' (Arabic grammar and morphology), as well as [[hadith]] and Qur'anic [[tafseer]].

Yusuf completed his undergraduate (Fazil) and graduate (Kamil) levels education in Alia Madrasa situated in [[Dhaka]]. In 1950, he achieved 1st position in the country on the basis of merit in the Fazil (Honors) examination under the East Pakistan Madrasa Board. Following this, he completed his graduate (Kamil) examinations in 1952, attaining recognition as ''Mumtaz al-Muhaddethin'', the highest distinction available to scholars of Islam in South Asia.

He started his profession as a madrasa teacher in 1952 and became the principal of Khulna Alia Madrasa in 1958. He also taught at Tikikata Senior Madrasa in Mothbaria (Barisal), where he served as Head Master.<ref name=bio /><ref name="Star ref" /><ref name="Radiance ref">{{cite news |title=BJI Leader AKM Yusuf Dies |url=http://radianceweekly.in/portal/issue/political-chessboard-in-up-which-direction-wind-is-blowing/article/bji-leader-akm-yusuf-dies/ |access-date=22 August 2014 |work=Radiance Weekly |date=16 February 2014 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140826115336/http://radianceweekly.in/portal/issue/political-chessboard-in-up-which-direction-wind-is-blowing/article/bji-leader-akm-yusuf-dies/ |archive-date=26 August 2014}}</ref>

==Leadership of various social institutions==

Yusuf headed the Bangladesh Peasants' Welfare Society (BPWS) ({{lang-bn|বাংলাদেশ চাষী কল্যাণ সমিতি}}), which he founded in 1977 as a non-government and non-profit social welfare organization.<ref name=bio /><ref>{{cite web |title=Bangladesh Peasants' Welfare Society (Bangladesh Chasi Kallyan Samity) Page |url=http://www.angelfire.com/journal/chasi/ |access-date=22 August 2014}}</ref> He has also founded and chaired an Arabic-research and fatwa institute called Darul-Arabia wa Darul-Ifta situated in Dhaka. Since its founding, the institute has become a renowned center for the translation of classical Arabic and Islamic literature authored by well-known scholars into Bengali and also publishes "Al-Huda", an Arabic language monthly from Bangladesh. It has a wide circulation in the Middle East.<ref name=bio />

==Leadership in Jamaat-e-Islami Bangladesh==

Yusuf joined the Jamaat-e-Islami in 1952. Rising quickly within its ranks, he was [[Emir|Ameer]] of the Khulna Division of the party from 1956 until October 1958. In October 1958, all parties were banned in the aftermath of the declaration of martial law in Pakistan by President [[Ayub Khan (President of Pakistan)|Ayub Khan]]. After martial law was lifted Yusuf was appointed as the Naib-e-Ameer (Vice President) for the party's East Pakistan division. From 1962, until the [[independence of Bangladesh]] in 1971, he was also a member of Jamaat's Majlis-e-Shura (Central Executive Council) for three consecutive full terms, under the leadership of Sayyid [[Abul A'la Maududi]] (Maududi).

After 1971, Yusuf served in various capacities in providing senior leadership for Jamaat. He was selected Secretary General for one term under Ameer [[Maulana Abdur Rahim]]. He again served in the same capacity for three consecutive terms under Jamaat Ameer Ghulam Azam and was elected as Senior Naib-e-Ameer during the second tenure of Ameer Maulana [[Motiur Rahman Nizami]]. He continued in this role until his death.<ref name=bio /><ref name="Star ref" /><ref name="world bulletin ref" /><ref name="Radiance ref" />

==Political career==
In the 1962 elections, Yusuf was nominated by Jamaat to run on behalf of his constituency Khulna and Barisal. Taking leave of absence from his teaching position at the Alia Madrasa, he contested the elections and won. At 35 years of age, he was at the time the youngest representative in the [[National Assembly of Pakistan]].

He actively participated in the civil unrest movement against dictator Ayub Khan in the 1960s and was part of the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) from 1965 to 1968 and later of the Democratic Action Committee (DAC), working alongside notable leaders such as [[Sheikh Mujibur Rahman]], [[Ataur Rahman Khan]], [[Nawabzada Nasrullah Khan]], Chowdhury Golam Mohammad and many others.<ref name=bio /><ref name="world bulletin ref" /><ref name="Radiance ref" />

==Role during Liberation War==

During the war, he became a member of the Abdul Motaleb Malik-led cabinet and served as Revenue Minister. However, all the cabinet members had resigned on 14 December, only two days before the country's independence, as they "decided to resign observing the country's situation,".<ref name="Radiance ref" /> Due to his high-profile political stance during the war, Yusuf was identified among 14 top collaborators who were ordered to surrender after promulgation of the [[Collaborators Act 1972]].<ref name="bdnews24">{{cite news |title=Jamaat leader Yusuf arrested |url=http://bdnews24.com/bangladesh/2013/05/12/jamaat-leader-yusuf-arrested |newspaper=bdnews24 |date=12 May 2013 |access-date=12 July 2013}}</ref> The list was made addressing Yusuf himself, [[Nurul Amin]], [[Ghulam Azam]], Khan A Sabur, Shah Azizur Rahman, Maulana Muhammad Ishaq, Khawaja Khayeruddin, [[Mahmud Ali (statesman)|Mahmud Ali]], Abbas Ali Khan and many others as collaborators. Awami League leader Obaydullah Mazumder of Feni was among the list of the collaborators.<ref name="prothom-alo">{{cite news |script-title=bn:যুদ্ধাপরাধীদের বিচার ও বাস্তবতা |url=http://www.prothom-alo.net/V1/archive/news_details_mcat.php?dt=2007-11-13&issue_id=427&cat_id=3&nid=Njg0NDU=&mid=Mw |language=bn |newspaper=[[Prothom Alo]] |date=13 November 2007 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130816043701/http://www.prothom-alo.net/V1/archive/news_details_mcat.php?dt=2007-11-13&issue_id=427&cat_id=3&nid=Njg0NDU=&mid=Mw |archive-date=16 August 2013 |access-date=12 July 2013}}</ref>

Fifty thousand collaborators were arrested under the [[Collaborators Act 1972]], among whom 752 were found guilty and were sentenced to varying degrees of imprisonment. Yusuf, despite his political stance of opposing the war of independence, was among those who received Mujibur Rahman's general amnesty in 1973 following a period of imprisonment in lieu of absence of any charges of killing, rape, loot or arson against him during the war.<ref name=bio /><ref name=prothom-alo />

==War Crimes trial==

===Arrest===

On 12 May 2013, Bangladeshi police arrested Yusuf in Dhaka on charges of war crimes, charging him with 15 crimes dating back to Bangladesh's 1971 war of independence with Pakistan, including genocide, killing, looting, arson and forcing members of minority faiths to convert to Islam.<ref>{{cite news |title=Bangladesh arrests top Islamist leader on war crimes charges |url=http://in.reuters.com/article/bangladesh-war-crimes-arrest-yusuf-idINDEE94B06O20130512 |access-date=22 August 2014 |agency=Reuters |date=12 May 2014}}</ref> Police alleged that he was the founder of the infamous [[Razakars (Pakistan)|Razakar]] Bahini, who were notorious for their operations that targeted Hindus as well as civilians suspected of being sympathetic towards Bengali nationalists.<ref>{{cite news |title=Bangladesh: Islamist leader AKM Yusuf arrested on war crimes |url=http://www.globalpost.com/dispatch/news/war/conflict-zones/130513/bangladesh-islamist-leader-akm-yusuf-arrested-war-crimes |agency=Globalpost |date=12 May 2013 |access-date=22 August 2014}}</ref>

===Charges===

According to the prosecution, Yusuf had formed the first team of Razakars (volunteers) on 5 May 1971 with 96 members of Jamaat in Khulna. He started gathering people for the force on 18 April. Yusuf was also reported as the regional chief of anti-liberation force Peace Committee, facing 15 war crimes charges, which included genocide, killing, looting, arson and forcing members of minority faiths to convert to Islam.<ref name="Radiance ref"/><ref name="bbc ref">{{cite news |title=Bangladesh war crimes suspect AKM Yusuf seeks bail |url=https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-22509011 |work=BBC News |date=13 May 2013 |access-date=22 August 2014}}</ref>

His defence team argued that Yusuf, then 87, required to be granted bail immediately because of his old age. Prosecutors however opposed the bail application, arguing that Yusuf had remained politically active despite his advancing years and should remain in jail to prevent him influencing trial proceedings.<ref name="bbc ref" /> Subsequently, his bail was rejected and he was sent to jail.

==Death==
[[File:Funeral of Maulana AKM Yusuf.jpg|thumb|Funeral of AKM Yusuf, He died while in custody.]]
