Right education and right training is the need of the hour, and getting job should not be criteria to get educated but it should be to know their creator and fellow beings and the responsibilities towards fellow beings. These are the words expressed by Mr Atharuulah Sharies, Bangalore, Vice Chairman, Board of Islamic Education Karnataka and the Secretary, Jamaat e Islami Hind Karnataka Zone, while presiding over the Prize Distribution Program on last Saturday the 16th July 2011 at Shalimar Garden Function Hall, Gulbarga organized by the Board of Islamic Education. He expressed his concern at the fact that right from kg to University level there is no single word about our creator Allah. He said in agriculture where in formation of plants is being taught, unfortunately we are not teaching about its creator. As a result most of the educational institutions are manufacturing educated animals. He said there was a period where in the west use to turn towards Muslim world to gain knowledge and learning. Muslims were highly educated and were masters in the field of Physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, agriculture, astrology, geology, mathematics, and what not. Muslim countries were so developed that they had street lights when there was no proper means in the west to get rid of darkness. He express his satisfaction over the fact that even in today’s demanding times Muslim women is not an exploited lot and that the Muslims are still far better in their morality compared to their compatriots. However they are being framed in many misdeeds. He called upon the gathering to uphold the highest Islamic values and exhibit highest morality as this is the religion which teaches its followers to attend to that sick enemy who pours garbage onto us.
