Answer: A. Madrassah Kamliah

Explanation

Ibn-e-Khaldun taught at prominent institutions, including Madrasah Kamliyah in Cairo. His reputation as a brilliant scholar secured him teaching positions in major intellectual centers. Students gathered around him in Egypt to study history, sociology, and Islamic jurisprudence. Ibn Khaldun traveled extensively across North Africa, Spain, and Egypt during his lifetime. He served as a judge and professor in Cairo, interacting with the intellectual elite of the Mamluk Sultanate. His practical teaching experience informed his theoretical writings on education and society.

Prominent scholars historically held teaching posts at multiple prestigious madrasahs across the Islamic world. Cairo has served as a major global hub for higher education and scholarly exchange for centuries. Academic mobility allows thinkers to cross-pollinate ideas between different regional educational centers. University of Baghdad refers to a modern institution rather than the medieval madrasahs where he taught. Cairo University is a modern twentieth-century campus rather than the medieval Madrasah Kamliyah. Tunis University is a modern institution, although he was originally born in Tunis.
