It ensures that Madaris have the necessary resources to offer a comprehensive education that is both religiously informed and academically rigorous. We are committed to standardize the curriculum across all Madaris to include a balanced mix of secular and religious education. The reformed syllabus will incorporate modern subjects such as science, mathematics, and languages, alongside traditional religious studies. This approach aims to provide students with a well-rounded education, preparing them for a variety of career paths and reducing the risk of sectarianism by promoting a unified educational framework.
