WHAT ARE MADARIS?

The term madrasah has varied meanings. Most generally, it is the term given in Arabic to any school, but it is also used to refer to specific types of schools. Madaris are at least a thousand years old. Accounts differ as to where madaris began, with origins being traced back to Baghdad, Fez, Morocco, and other rich cultural hubs in the Middle East. Today the madrasah typically functions as a privately owned school where a religious teacher instils his pupils with the basic tenets of Islam and the Arabic language.

Education during the Time of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) During the Mecca period, Muhammad (PBUH) was persecuted by his opponents, and hurdles were created to stop him from preaching the religion of Islam.

The Prophet, however, carried on his mission despite stiff opposition. In such a situation the Dar-e-Arqam proved to be the very first place where the companions of the Prophet (PBUH) gathered and listened to the instructions of the Prophet (PBUH) and got religious training. Similarly, Shabe-e-Abi Talib where the family of the Prophet (PBUH) and his companions were secluded for three years due to the boycott of the Quraish tribe served as a place of teaching and learning for the inmates.

Education during the Time of the Rightly Guided Caliphs During the period of the Rightly Guided Caliphs education was given due attention. The learned among the sahaba were facilitated to promote education among the Muslims. During the time of Abu Bakr (632-634A.D.) Hazrat Ayesha, Hazrat Zaid bin Tabeth, Hazrat Abu Hurara and Abdulla bin Umar were among the great scholars who imparted education to the people. They included the four immediate successors of the Holy Prophet(PBUH). Abu Bakr (632-634), Umar (634-644), Uthman (644-656), Ali (656-661). Hazrat Umar (634644A.D) encouraged learning and allocated funds from the state treasury for the promotion of education. He also deputed learned men to the newly conquered territories to promote education among the local people.

The Birth of fiqh and the Emergence of the ulema as a

Professional Class
During the lifetime of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) his interpretation of

the Quran was final. But after the demise of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) and pious caliphs this duty was assumed by imams. These imams made ijtihad and interpreted the Quran and sunnah according to their own understanding, each imam having his own followers. Thus, different schools of thought called mazahib came into being. The followers of each mazhab made efforts to propagate their thoughts, which highly contributed to Muslim education. Sunnis recognize four Imams i.e. Abu Hanifa, Shaafi, Malik and Hanbal while the Shia believe in twelve imams of their own.

Additionally there are a number of Quran academies offering diplomas in Islamic courses.

Teachers of Madrasa
In almost all traditional madrasahs no rigid rules are applied for the recruitment of teachers. They are often appointed through personal networks and serve as long as the administrator of the madrasah is satisfied with their performance. All madrasahs employ those teachers who belong to that particular maslak which the madrasah represents. In traditional madrasahs there are no rules for the protection of service.

Teacher of School
Teacher education in Pakistan offered in the higher secondary education sector, in the tertiary/university sector and through in-service training for the higher education sector.

Therefore, the administrators of Teacher education programmes

madrasahs often impose strict discipline and undue restrictions which curtail the freedom of expression among the teachers. Sometimes, the administrators interfere in their personal lives and exploit their compulsions. In traditional madrasahs the teacher student relationship is generally authoritarian, but deeply personal at the same time, somewhat like between a father and son.

Methods

of Teaching in Teaching method in school

majority of the teachers use only lecture method to teach even science subjects i.e. Biology, Chemistry, and Physics whereas, these subjects demand practical demonstration. There are many excuses of not adopting modern methods of teaching, the most important is that majority of the teachers have argument that curricula is lengthy and working environment is not provided in public sector.

madrasa
Traditional madrasahs follow centuries-old methods of teaching in which the text is the center of all activities instead of the student. Typically, the teacher sits on a low platform, reclining against a bolster, while the student sit below him on mats spread on the floor, placing their books on low tables in front of them. The teacher reads out from the text and asks the students to take turns in reading aloud, and then explains the content of the portions read out.

The text is usually in Arabic and Direct instruction is the most

the teacher comments on it in Urdu. Although questioning is allowed, dissent and debate are usually unlinked and sometimes discouraged. The study of books of rival maslaks is strongly opposed in most madrasahs and even leads to expulsion from the madrasah. This highly restricts the field of study for students and, therefore, most madrasah students have little enthusiasm for intellectual research and hardly any expertise in any discipline. Rote learning is emphasized even in purely

common form of instruction. This is the lecturing method of teaching. Many teachers use this teaching method almost exclusively, as it is considered the simplest, and one can cover large amounts of material in a short period of time.

Madrasa management

Traditional madrasahs individual enterprises in Pakistan. Larger madrasahs are, however, run by an elaborate hierarchy of functionaries. At the apex is the sarparast (Chancellor), who is also often the founder of the madrasah or his successor, in which case he is generally a direct descendant of the founder. Below him is the muhtamim (Vice Chancellor), who is followed by the sadar madrasah (Dean) and teachers of different subjects.

Educational administration are and policy in Pakistan

The division of responsibilities between the provinces and the centre are defined by the Constitution of 1973. The Federal Ministry of Education has the overall responsibility for the development and coordination of national policies, plans and programmes in education including curriculum development, while implementation of the policies is the responsibility of the local administration.

The rector of the madrasah is Each

assisted in his work by a committee of elders (shura) consisting of senior ulema and teachers, and sometimes of notable Muslims including rich traders, philanthropists and important donors. The members of the shura are generally appointed by the sarparast. Although, in theory, staff appointments are made strictly on the basis of merit and piety, often the management of madrasahs is in the hands of the families of their founders.
