In this article Author highlights the need of Madras’s for poor and negative reflection of Pakistan madras’s in foreign countries. In this article author also put light on the recruitment, educational, and training activities of student in abroad madras’s.
The author says some of the radical madras’s still need to be weeded out; embracing Islamic education with an integrated reform strategy is more likely to reduce militancy, rather than lamenting madras’s as mysterious institutions.
However, many of the suicide bombers in recent months have been traced back to madras’s, the pendulum has swung again, as now analysts discover that civil conflict in Afghanistan and Pakistan can be just as dangerous for Western interests. Focusing on the core problem of curricular reform can provide us a path out of this ambivalence about madras’s. Similar concerns have existed in other religions as well, but Islamic schools in Pakistan have struggling with a host of circumstances that compounded these challenges. In other parts of the world, madras’s have served an appropriate educational purpose. For example in West Bengal, India, a survey of Islamic schools in January 2009 found that because of the higher quality education at madras’s, even non-Muslims were actively enrolling in them. This was remarkably akin to how in Pakistan many Muslim families send their children to Christian schools because of the high quality of teaching and discipline.Hindu enrolment in several Bengali madras’s, for example, was as high as 64 percent because many of these institutions offered vocational training programmes. Such examples can certainly be emulated in Pakistani madras’s as well. We should not give up on madras’s but rather help bring them back to their heyday of pluralistic learning.The only way to solve the madras’s problem is to engage in a process of reform that focuses on pluralism and conflict resolution skills that should be facilitated by the Pakistani government with the assistance of other Muslim countries and ulema.Careers as healthcare apprentices and disaster relief professionals are particularly appropriate in this regard.

First of all i would like to add the fact that it is the most concerning issue we as Pakistani are facing right now, but no body cares enough to turn attention on this HOT topic. We always ALLEGE "Madrassas" as the "Terrorist" groups and a source of discomfort to all of all. We we just forget that still Pakistan's 70% population resides in Villages where no SCHOOL systems are there. Where do those children has to go? Arent they OUR children- Pakistan's??
ReplyDeleteMadrassas are the places where POOR parents leave their beloved children to study. Why do we forget that our Quaid, Mohammad Ali Jinnah also started his early education on a MADRASSAS, same is the case with Illama Iqbal.
Madrassas are not CONVENTIONAL MADRASSASSAS now in this contemporary world. Goto "Jamia-e-Faridia" in Sahiwal where over 600 students are getting Computer Education , MA Islamiat, Ma Arabic, Matric degrees etc "FOR FREE", Goto "Jamia Ashrafia" and see what is happening there.
Point to ponder on friends.
A very nice effort by my friend Imran Khalid.
Keep it up.
