Madrassas In Pakistan
Madrassas of Pakistan are Islamic seminaries in Pakistan, known in Urdu as ''Madaris-e-Deeniya'' (literally: religious schools). Most madrassas teach mostly Islamic subjects such as ''tafseer'' (interpretation of the Quran), ''hadith'' (thousands of sayings of Muhammad), ''fiqh'' (Islamic law) and Arabic (the language of the Quran); but include some non-Islamic subjects (such as logic, philosophy, mathematics), which enable students to understand the religious ones. The number of madrassas grew dramatically during and since the rule of General Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq. They are especially popular among Pakistan's poorest families, in part because they feed and house their students. Estimates of the number of madrasas vary between 12,000 and 40,000. In some areas of Pakistan they outnumber the underfunded public schools. Most madrassas in Pakistan are Sunni, follow the doctrine of the Deobandi sect and have educated the masses about the essentials and principles of their sectarian ver ...
