Provenance & notes
Constituency number 233 confirmed by Wikipedia (Sylhet-5 article), the List of constituencies of the Jatiya Sangsad, BSS, and Bangla news sources -- matches the requested number, no correction needed. Upazilas Kanaighat and Zakiganj confirmed by Wikipedia and BSS. Party affiliation: BSS, both Bonikbarta editions, Dhaka Tribune division-wise results, and both Wikipedia MP articles (en and bn) confirm Khelafat Majlis (11-party alliance nominee, wall clock symbol); the Sylhet-5 Wikipedia constituency article incorrectly lists BNP -- this is a Wikipedia error, overridden by five primary sources. Vote count 79,355 sourced from BSS (official state wire quoting EC result centre, February 13, 2026) and confirmed by Bonikbarta (Bangla and English editions); earlier preliminary figures of 75,821 and 75,814 in Wikipedia and Jugantor reflect counts before postal ballots were finalised, per explicit caveat in Sylhetttoday24 and Jugantor. Runner-up: Ubaidullah Faruq, Jamiyat-e-Ulama-e-Islam Bangladesh (central president), 69,774 votes; margin 9,581 (79,355 - 69,774, internally consistent). Third place: Mamunur Rashid (Chaksu Mamun), BNP dissident, football symbol, 54,614 votes (Bonikbarta Bangla). Total valid votes not published at constituency level; vote_share_percent, runner_up_vote_share, and margin_percent are null per EC-only rule. MP born 15 October 1966 per Bangla Wikipedia, age 59 as of May 2026. Education: full madrasa chain from Hifz through Dawra-e-Hadith (1992-1993, Pattiya, Chittagong) per Bangla Wikipedia -- Islamic seminary qualifications, no secular-university degree. Occupation: mosque khatib since June 2000 and madrasa teacher since 1993. Party role: Adviser, Sylhet District Khelafat Majlis per Bangla Wikipedia; not a central party officer. First-time MP (term_count=1, prior_terms empty). boundary_redrawn_2024 false: no EC 2024 delimitation change cited in any source. wealth_disclosed_bdt and criminal_cases: EC affidavit not publicly accessible at time of verification; EC-only rule strictly applied, no values imputed from secondary sources.
