Recognizing him as a renowned pediatrician, a few people believe that Dr Humayun Kabir is a graduate of the long-stigmatized Islamic schools or madrassahs in West Bengal.

“After they saw my twelfth grade board exam mark-sheet and found the name of my madrasah on it, they believed me.

“Actually they had no idea that the madrasah where I had studied could teach me science subjects and prepare me for the medical entrance test.”

Madrasas have become a mainstream education provider for tens of thousands of Indian students.

Madrasas have maashallah developed , and students are not only taught the Quran and its meaning , but are also taught contemporary subjects. There are many islamic schools in the US , UK , NZ & LK that teach academic subjects , and some of the students have even made it into the top rankings in their respected field of study.
This is good to see !
May Allah(SWT) empower us all , and give us wisdom and always show us the straight path!
