There is no Conflict in Formal Education & Islamic Education in Islamic International School – Dr Zakir Naik
SKLI-17
We even teach them Darwen’s theory unlike the other schools, I realized that in some western countries a child goes to a normal convent school, government school in the evening he goes to evening Madrasas. So in the morning he is taught that the human beings have been created from monkey and in the evening he is told that the first man is Adam (a.s.)
In the morning he is taught that Riba is very good, interest, you can become a great businessman, a wealthy person, in the evening he is taught Riba, interest is Haraam. So there is dichotomy, there will be confusion in the minds of the children. That doesn’t mean don’t send your children to Madarsa. Madarasa do good work, Alhumdulillah, they should continue. Better send them than don’t send; don’t get me wrong. The Madarasas are very good, MashaAllah. I am for it, I am not against it but we have to keep on improving the standards. So whatever they are doing MashaAllah, they are doing a good work. When I go to Madarasas, I tell them that you incorporate English there, you incorporate the formal subjects. So when there is a different teaching in the morning and in the evening, the child is confused. So when we teach science we see to it that we incorporate and tell them even Qur’anic verses related to that. Qur’an speaks about water cycle, about geography, salt and sweet water. Qur’an speaks about geology, that mountains have got roots and many things which is not mentioned in the text book, the teachers they are trained. They are trained how to teach and in this way out of this normal formal education 25% Islam is even incorporated when we teach them mathematics, science, history, geography etc. we have taken the normal syllabus I.G.C.S.E. following that syllabus and even incorporating the Islamic studies both in Arabic and English. So that when the child appears, he appears for the normal examination that is the central board examination after he passes that, he can take up medicine, take up engineering or become a lawyer or a businessman or come to the main stream of Islamic studies, no problem, he has his choice and what we are doing, we are in contact, MashaAllah with those people who are experts in the world.
As Allah says in the Qur’an in Surah Nahl ch. 16 verse no. 43 and Surah Anbiya ch. no. 21 verse no. 7
“Fas-aloo ahlaz zikri in kuntum la ta’lamoon”
that “If you don’t know, ask the person who is knowledgeable”
So we are in touch with the knowledgeable people from different parts of the world. We are in touch with the local experts of Madina University, of Ulmul Qura etc. we are in touch. So that whatever things we want to put in practice in our school we consult with the experts but we are doing many things which are unconventional. Many people told me that Brother Zakir, it’s not possible. You can’t have 2 streams at the same time. It’s not possible. I tell them at least make Dua. At least make Dua, InshaAllah. So what we want to do, we want to give a sample role model to the Ummah that it’s possible though many people, majority said its not possible but Alhumdulillah, Suma Alhumdulillah, if you meet the parents and if you see the Annual Day CD of our programme then you’ll come to know Alhumdulillah that what is the level of education, MashaAllah.
