Question: worldly education can make your child an engineer, a doctor, a teacher…etc...but How does the religious knowledge benefits your child??..we know that gaining religious knowledge may make a person successful in the hereafter! But what about this world? why should you give importance to the religious knowledge during the growth years of your child?..
No doubt that the worldly knowledge is important as it leads to inventions, discoveries, exploring of new technologies which helps in making our daily life easier, providing us various facilities, and it helps in the overall development of the communities. But the religious knowledge is also very important!...because it is the religion which teaches us morals and character.
<The Absence of worldly knowledge>:
The people who just give importance to the religious knowledge and neglect the worldly education. then no matter how good the society with such people become in their religion,they will still be not able to become independent on the grounds of technologies, machinery, etc. then no matter how much natural resources they are blessed with, they wont be able to utilize it! and other countries will take advantage of it! They will become dependent on the other countries and communities for such advancements and technology and thereby will become backward in the world.
<The absence of religious knowledge>
Absence of religious knowledge has its own demerits, as It’s the religion which teaches us our rights and duties towards our parents, our relatives, our neighbors, our community. it’s the religion which teaches us to stand for truth! to fight for justice! to help, others and to stand and fight for their rights. And if a person avoid the religious knowledge, then he might not understand the importance of hereafter, over this world, he might just blindly run behind this world. , he may become selfish, and careless about others. he might sell his faith, through bribes, he might practice injustice, and he may corrupt the community and society. Also such a person no matter how successful he becomes in this world, will suffer huge loses in the hereafter!
<The misconception about backwardness>:
One thing we should understand that studying or having the religious knowledge doesn’t in any case bring backwardness. As its our roots, our tradition, and our identity,our guide to this life and knowing these things doesn’t in any case bring any backwardness. Rather its avoiding of worldly knowledge that bring backwardness, as discussed above, the problem is that we choose our most intelligent and best people for the world, making them doctors, engineer, etc and give the most weaker one, who are not that intelligent or capable of studying enough to be a doctor or an engineer, in the service of the Religion and thereby we chose the best for the world and the worst for the religion! Which has made the religion in the worst condition! We should understand this and should stick it in our mind, that for a Muslim, his religion is his roots, upon which he stands and if his roots are weak! Then in no time he will be uprooted! Here in this world, or definitely in the hereafter!
Although its important to acquire worldly knowledge, to be advances and develop but it doesn’t mean to leave your own culture! Your own Tradition! Your own Religion!..why aren’t we just adopting and learning the knowledge, the technology, the machinery from them? Why do we have to adopt their culture! A culture where there are maximum rates of Robbery! Murder! Rapes! Where kids feel modern and advanced by dancing on some music tunes in a club, drunk with a boyfriend or a girl friend? Where there are the maximum rates of teen age pregnancy! Where people inspite of being loved, cared and raised by their parents! They wish to live separate from them or even send them to an old age home?...do we really want our kids to be like that ? why do we feel that following our religion will make us backward? Just because some people or the media have said or thinks so?...should we really consider such people’s saying?...or it should be Allah whose’s saying should we consider?...
remember! this religion is send to honor you! Because it’s the religion through which Allah honored the Prophet Muhammad(peace be upon him) and His companions! it’s the religion of the Most Honored One! The most Glorified One! Then how can we ever get backward in following the religion of Allah??...
When a Muslim with strong Islamic roots gets the worldly education, then no matter at which place! At which position!at which rank he is working on! He will be of such character and morals! That he will be generous and kind towards his subordinates, helpful and supportive towards his colleges, respectful towards his seniors! he wont fear anyone except Allah! He wont fear to speak the truth! he wont spread his hands in front of any one for anything except Allah! he will be aware of his duties and rights given to him by his country and by his religion, he wont be afraid to use those rights and to stand and fight for the rights of others! His wealth will be a blessing for the whole community! no bribe will buy his faith! He will love others for the sake of Allah! he will maintain the family ties!he will honor his parents, his relatives, his neighbors, his fellow Muslims! He wont harm any one from his tongue and hand! He will even die defending and saving his brothers and sisters from oppression!
Then who will dare to oppress the brother of this Muslim? Who will dare to dishonor t he sister of his Muslim? Then who will dare to give bribe to this Muslim? Then who will dare to cause injustice in the community of such Muslims?
