Education provides the framework where an individual or a society is enabled to realise a particular way of living and to sustain it. This lifestyle ultimately includes moral, social, economic and other values that a person employs in different phases of life. A highly structured schooling programme, with well-designed course plans and other study material, helps to provide meaningful education for the development of a society. Academic institutions, therefore, are required to play a pivotal role by producing individuals through meaningful education flavoured with positive values. Dar-ul-Madinah, an Islamic School System, has set an objective of improving conventional academic studies in conformity with Shari’ah. It is one of over 100+ departments functioning under Dawat-e-Islami, a global and non-political movement for preaching the Holy Quran and Sunnah. This education system is to help students learn and thrive to the best of their abilities within the boundaries of Islam. It also aims to develop an environment where Islamic values shall be honoured in all management, curriculum, and teaching practices.
