Abstract

Education is the key to a living and dynamic human civilization based on human creativity and productivity. Uniformity in curriculum provides a well-defined and unambiguous goal and it leads toward national integration and social cohesion. Consequently, the potential and competence of the individuals are utilized in a desired and productive manner without a slightest deviation from the defined goal. Pakistan inherited two diverse educational approaches with its inception known as AlÊga’rh and Deoband approaches, commonly known as school and Madrassa educational systems. The aim and objective of both the approaches were to educate and groom the Muslims of the sub-continent in religious and modern scientific education and to preserve the rich values and traditions of Muslim civilization from the onslaught of colonial powers. Undoubtedly, both approaches followed their initial philosophies with zeal and zest. Unfortunately, with the passage of time both the approaches have been deviating from the aims and objectives due to certain unavoidable political, social and economic factors. One is blindly following the footsteps of Western philosophy of education mainly based on materialism and the other has closed its eyes from the growing religious challenges posed by various dynamics and entirely engaged in provision of sect-based education. Consequently, the outcomes are intellectual stagnation, moral degradation, no sense of responsibility and detachment from values and traditions of Muslim civilization. A grievous gap has been widening between the followers of both approaches rapidly that causes national disintegration as well as social disorder and instability. Moreover, Muslim civilization has stopped growing and inspiring others. An attempt has been made in this paper to study and analyze both the educational approaches critically and objectively and to explore a feasible and productive way out and to fill the gap. Keywords: Pakistan, Educational Reformation, Deformation, Islam

教育机构在巴基斯坦伊斯兰化、社会改革和民族一体化中的作用
教育是建立在人类创造力和生产力基础上的充满生机和活力的人类文明的关键。课程的统一性提供了一个明确而明确的目标,并导致民族融合和社会凝聚力。因此,个人的潜力和能力以一种理想的和富有成效的方式得到利用,而不会丝毫偏离既定的目标。巴基斯坦继承了两种不同的教育方法,最初被称为AlÊga 'rh和Deoband方法,通常被称为学校和Madrassa教育系统。这两种方法的目的和目标都是在宗教和现代科学教育方面教育和培养次大陆的穆斯林,并保护穆斯林文明的丰富价值和传统不受殖民列强的冲击。毫无疑问,这两种方法都以热情和热情遵循了它们最初的理念。不幸的是,随着时间的推移,由于某些不可避免的政治、社会和经济因素,这两种方法都偏离了目的和目标。一种是盲目追随以唯物主义为基础的西方教育哲学的脚步,另一种是对各种动态带来的日益增长的宗教挑战视而不见,完全从事以教派为基础的教育。因此,结果是智力停滞,道德堕落,没有责任感,脱离穆斯林文明的价值观和传统。两种方法的追随者之间的严重差距正在迅速扩大,导致国家解体以及社会混乱和不稳定。此外,穆斯林文明已经停止发展和激励他人。本文试图从客观、批判的角度对教育方法进行研究和分析,探索出一条切实可行、富有成效的出路,填补这一空白。关键词:巴基斯坦;教育改革;变形
