There is a Chinese proverb which states, “If you plan for a year, sow the seed; If you plan for a decade, plant a tree and If you plan for a century, educate the people”. The founder members of this institution had this noble ideal in mind when they started this college. It is said that when a person crosses a river, he ought not to forget that he has left the other bank behind. This college has seen the light of the day due to the Herculean efforts of some of the elders of Ilayangudi. Janab. Ameen Nainar Howth sounded the idea of establishing an Arts and Science College in Ilayangudi.

The unique feature of this college was that unlike other colleges, this College was not started by any single rich man or business people. Rather, this college was started by the ordinary citizens who have the thirst to start an educational institution for higher education in their locality. A membership fee of Rs.11/- each was collected and every citizen of Ilayangudi has contributed for the emergence of the College. (At present, the membership fee was increased to Rs.3000 and today there are 550 members in the College Society).

The yearning for a college in this area arose in the minds of the elders of Ilayangudi, when they had bitter experience in admitting their wards to colleges situated at far off places. Before the inception of the college in 1970, the people of Ilayangudi had to depend on Colleges at far off places like Jamal Mohamed College, Trichy, New College, Madras, or colleges at Madurai. They found it difficult in getting the desired courses also.

The colleges in Sivagangai, Karaikudi and Ramanathapuram were not convenient for them due to some reasons or other. The position of the people in the interior villages was pathetic. Therefore, with the main objective of providing facility for higher education in Ilayangudi, this College was named after the great educationist, a devout scholar and the III President of India, Dr. Zakir Husain, in 1970.

Ours is the 10th College started in Tamil Nadu by the efforts mostly of the Muslims of Tamil Nadu. Of the other nine, three are in North Arcot District, two in Chennai, one in Tanjore District, one in Trichy and two in Madurai District.
