None of the 55 Muslim countries of the world have made madrasa education equivalent to modern education in their countries. Hence, candidates with madrasa qualification would not get jobs in Muslim countries. But in Hindu-majority secular India, the madrasa-qualified candidates are made eligible for selection to every government jobs, at par with CBSE qualified candidates.
The decision of the Congress-UPA government to make madrasa education equivalent to C.B.S.E, was strangely taken just after it was officially reported to it, about the incident in which some Muslim youths of Kerala, who were killed in an encounter with the Indian security forces in Kashmir, actually belonged to a group, that went to the madrasas of Hydrabad and Ahmedabad, for higher studies in religious education. The motivation from that education was so intense that they were prepared to sacrifice their lives, for the cause of Islam.They went to Kashmir, fought along with the Muslim separatists of Kashmir, for its separation from Hindu India. The revelation that higher studies in madrasas create terrorists, who fight against their own country, was shocking to every Indians, except to their rulers in Delhi. Such reports and the shocking disclosure of the NSA about the 800 sleeper cells of purely Indian Islamic terror network, all over India, do not seem to deter the rulers at the centre from taking more steps to promote and encourage madrasa education. It seems that these rulers are determined to destroy India in its entirety.
It is very pertinent to note that the Muslims of India have never demanded to make Madrasa education equivalent to the CBSE, knowing its ineligibility to it. It is the leaders of the ruling parties, who invent and introduce bizarre and perverted schemes to pamper and appease the Muslim community. They attribute oppression and discrimination by the majority community as the reason for the slightly lesser percentage of the literacy rate among the Muslims, in comparison to Hindus. They intentionally and maliciously conceal the fact that even in neighboring Muslim countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan, the literacy rate among Muslims remain much lower than the literacy rate of Indian Muslims. None could allege that Muslims are oppressed and discriminated in those countries also.
The aversion of Muslim fanatics towards modern education, which directly clash with the religious beliefs of Islam and its taboo of women education are in fact the reasons for the educational backwardness of Muslims. Denial of education to Muslim women, by Muslims themselves, directly and naturally lowers the literacy rate among Muslims. Mortally afraid of the religious backlash, if taken up any official campaign against the Islamic aversion and taboo towards modern education, all the echelons in the govt turn to the whipping boy, the majority community, and blame it, even for the lower rate of literacy among Muslims and make it the lame excuse to confer on madrasas the equivalent status of CBSE. No doubt the decision of the Central Government to make madrasa education equivalent to CBSE is a chauvinistic move to return India back to the dark ages of Islamic rule, under various foreign Muslim rulers. It is a challenge to the concept of the modern educational system based on secularism, equality of human beings, religious tolerance and modern scientific ethos. It is beyond belief why the so- called champions of secularism in Congress, communist parties and the intellectuals of various fields keep a studied silence on this retrograde move.
None of the 55 Muslim countries of the world have made madrasa education equivalent to modern education in their countries. Hence, candidates with madrasa qualification would not get the jobs in Muslim countries. But in Hindu majority secular India, the madrasa-qualified candidates are made eligible for selection to every government jobs, at par with CBSE qualified candidates. They are also made eligible for admission to medical, engineering, law, management and even teachers training courses, who are to mould the future generations.
Finding that madrasa education produce fundamentalists, extremists, terrorists and suicide bombers, who create havoc in their countries, even the Muslim countries have been taking steps to control and restrict it. The gun-wielding students and teachers of the Lal Masjid madrasa, had posed a grave threat even to a Muslim country like Pakistan it was forced to order military action against them, killing scores of its teachers and students. When the whole Muslim world plan overtime to control madrasa education, it is the incredible India which grants thousands of crores of rupees to it, from the public exchequer, in the guise of its modernisation and conferred on it, the respectable high status at par with the CBSE, so as to boost and encourage it. Not to be left behind, the Kerala Government, which arrested and charge sheeted around thirty Muslim youths of the state, who went to Kashmir via madrasas of Hyderabad and Ahmedabad and waged a war against the country, immediately announced Rs 4,000 monthly pension to the barely literate madrasa teachers, apart from welfare fund and other benefits from the public exchequer.
Before entering into any debate on madrasa education, one should be familiar with the basic principles of the Quran. The Quran categorises human beings into two – Al Mu’minun ( believers /Muslims) and al kafirun (non-believers/ non-Muslims /idol worshippers). Muslims are people who submit to the commands of Allah (who believe Allah as the only God, who believe Mohammed as Allah’s last Prophet, believe in kiyamath (end of the world / day of judgement / day of resurrection) and who live strictly according to the dictates of Allah contained in the Quran, the sunna and hadith. Only such persons are eligible to enter paradise as described in scores of verses of the Quran. All other people who belong to all other religions are Kafirs , who are totally ineligible to enter paradise , but only eligible for the horribly described hell.
It is only the madrasa education, without any access to modern education, that created Taliban in Afghanistan and Pakistan. The threat posed by the Taliban and its numerous offshoots to the entire world, especially to India, need not be highlighted. Muslim students of madrasas, after having made madrasa education equivalent to C.B.S.E, not having any access to the modern, secular education, are not to be blamed, if they turn out to be fanatics and extremists. Apparently, the leaders who lead the present Central Government, which has made madrasa education equivalent to C.B.S.E, have not held the national interests above petty vote-bank politics. Already the Indians have lost the sense of security due to the frequent serial bomb blasts by the Islamic terrorists, who had quoted many chilling quotations for justifying their war against the Hindu idol-worshippers, in their e-mails sent to the medias just before the Jaipur and Ahmedabad serial bomb blasts.
The Indians already feel that they are besieged in their own homeland. All the Hindus of the Kashmir Valley have either been driven out or massacred, just for their unwavering allegiance to India, by the terrorists led by madrasa-educated clerics. Encouraging madrasa education by the government would definitely escalate terrorism and would also prove to be too costly the security of the nation.
No wonder, it was also the Central Government headed by the diehard secular Indira Gandhi of the grand old Indian National Congress, which sent an official delegation of ministers to the conference of the Organisation Of Islamic Countries, held at Rabath, Morocco and begged for its membership, for the great sovereign, socialist, democratic, and secular republic of India. Jai Ho!
