The All India Muslim League was founded under the guidance of Aga Khan and Mohsin ul Mulk. A collection of Muslim leaders created the Muslim League in Dhaka in 1906. It was created by Aligarh Movement supporters, lovers, and associates. As the first Honourary President, Sir Agha Khan was chosen. Nawab Sir Khwaja Salimullah, Nawab Waqar ul Mulk, Nawab Mohsin ul Mulk, and Syed Ameer Ali were among the main founders of the All India Muslim League.

The Muslim League (also known as the All-India Muslim League) was a British Indian national organization that was created in 1906. Its ardent support, beginning in 1930, for the formation of a distinct Muslim-majority nation-state, Pakistan, culminated in the British Empire's division of India in 1947.

The party originated out of a necessity for Muslim political participation in British India, particularly in the case of widespread Hindu resistance to the partition of Bengal in 1905, which was backed by the Indian National Congress. During the All India Muslim Education Conference's annual conference in Ahsan Manzil in 1906, the Nawab of Dhaka, Khwaja Salimullah, proposed the formation of a political party to preserve the interests of Muslims in British India. The conference passed the resolution unanimously, resulting in the official foundation of the All India Muslim League in Dhaka. Until 1937, when the leadership began organizing the Muslim people, the league remained an aristocratic institution. The concept of a separate nation-state, as well as famous scholar Sir Muhammad Iqbal's goal of unifying the four provinces of North-West British India, bolstered the two-nation theory in the 1930s, coinciding with Syed Ahmad Khan's thoughts.
