After completing his primary education in his home village Emrullah Efendi continued his education in „Satarla Madrasa“ in the town of Silistra.  Then he graduated „Theology“ at the University of Istanbul. When he returned to Bulgaria he settled in the city of Shumen where he began working in the religious field along the path of Allah.

Initially he was a director of the school „Madrasa-i Aliye“ in Shumen. When „Madrasat-tun-Nyuvvab“ was established Emrullah Efendi moved there and became the first director of the school. Since the establishment of RS „Nyuvvab“ in 1922 till his death in 1941 Emrullah Efendi had devoted  nearly 19 years of his life to the spiritual growth of hundreds of Muslim and Turkish religious cadres, teachers, writers, poets and public figures.
