The Saifee Hospital is a State of the art, modern hospital built in Charni Road region of Mumbai, India. It has 33 specialised departments, 200 doctors and 295 beds.

Huzurala (TUS) said in waaz on 9 Moharram 1426H that:

“I, Mumluko Ale Mohammed, have built the Saifee Hospital in remembrance of my revered father Syedna Taher Saifuddin (RA) and in his name. The Khidmat Guzaars who have undertaken this project have strived that it is ‘One of the best hospitals with most modern equipments’.”

The Saifee hospital was envisioned originally by Syedna Taher Saifuddin, who led the Dawoodi Bohra community from 1915 to 1965 and fostered efforts in medical care for the community. The Hospital was rebuilt by the head of the Dawoodi bohra community His Holiness Dr Syedna Mohammed Burhanuddin (Head of the Dawoodi Bohra Community since 1965) with contributions from Community members and was inaugurated in June 2005 by the Prime minister of India, Dr Manmohan Singh.
