The youth of this generation are the leaders and governors of the generations to come. Thus, their education, the way they think, the values and ideals they hold - all these are of vital importance in shaping the future of the world. If you take a look around you now and see the situation of the younger generations, do you have confidence that their future will be in safe hands?
In the Islamic State, the Education System is geared towards building the Islamic personality in all the students. This prepares them to live their lives in accordance with the orders and prohibitions of Allah (swt). They will be taught all they need to know about the various aspects of Islam, such as social conduct, prayer, Islamic law etc.
As well they will be motivated to achieve excellence in the fields of science and technology, commerce and the arts. These will be taught within the framework of Islam, such that the hypothetical ideas which are propounded as facts in the West, like evolution of humans from apes and matter and energy being eternal, will not corrupt their minds.
The concepts taught by the Education System of Islam are based entirely on reality, and they motivate the ones carrying them to apply their minds to this reality and discover its true nature. The study of living things, the oceans, the planets - all these will point to the fact of Allah’s existence and omnipotence.
In this way, the educational curriculum will ensure that Islam, science and the affairs of life will not be seen as separate and unconnected worlds, but will be regarded as a holistic and intricately interwoven unit.
In the society as a whole, which teaches people as much as any school, by means of the television, magazines and radio; unacceptable images of sex, violence and crime will not exist in the Islamic State as an influence over the people. Rather, these unfruitful pursuits will be replaced with stories of the Prophet (saw) and his Sahabah (ra), or other lessons in the Islamic way of life.
You will see how implementation of the Islamic Education System established those living under it, whether Muslim or not, at the forefront of science and technology, and how it built personalities that stood forth in justice.
