Madrasa Education: Need To Upgrade The Syllabus Of Madrasas.

Abstract

Education is the main cause of development of any culture or civilization. A nation cannot progress without the development of education. Muslims’ education is related to Madrasas. A Madrasa is a place for acquiring knowledge. Madrasas have been the only source of education for Muslims for ages. These Madrasas have not been able to integrate their education system with modern education, so there is lack of modern outlook and insight among Madrasa graduates. Thus, there is a decline in the education standard of Muslim. To upgrade the educational standard of Muslims, there is a need to develop the Madrasa education system. This study focuses on the development of Madrasas with modern curriculum, including English as a subject. Madrasas are already providing religious teachings. Now there is a need to reform these Madrasas in line with modern educational standard. This paper focuses on the reformation of Madrasas’ education system. It also investigates the syllabus used in the Madrasas.
