The Pot Calling Cattel Black(with reference to the vicious propaganda against Muslims)
Muslims were invaders, looters and ruthless foreigner iconoclast, who abhorrently misbehaved Mother India, robbed its glory and shine, killed in cold blood thousands of natives,(read Hindus) and demolished Hindu temples and shrines. This is how Muslims are being stereotyped day out and day in by Indian national media, entertainment industry, TV series and films not to mention here of the constant antagonist propaganda of RSS and VHP percharaks and cohorts like Pushpendra Kalshreshta and his ilk.
Read MoreReflections on Educational Progress of Indian Muslims
when it comes to modernization of madrassas ulema and madrasa people make excuses that only four percent of Muslim children go to Madrasas so why bother about these three or four per cent of community children ?

جہاد دہشت گردی کا نام نہیں ۔ان دونوں میں اتنی ہی دوری ہے جتنی آسمان وزمین میں ۔اسلام اورخوںریزی کبھی جمع نہیں ہوسکتے جیسے آگ اورپانی جمع نہیں ہوسکتے۔ قرآن کریم جودین کا اولین مصدرہے، سے یہ حقیقت بالکل واضح ہے ،سنت قائمہ جاریہ سے بھی یہی بات معلوم ہوتی ہے۔البتہ بعض روایات آحاداوران کی بنیاد پر بننے والی فقہی آراءسے لوگوں کے دلوں میں جہاداوراسلام کے بارے میں کچھ غلط فہمیاں پیداہوتی ہیں۔ اوریہ غلط فہمیاں معمولی نہیں بلکہ اتنی زیادہ عام ہیں کہ اچھے اچھے اذہان ان کا شکارہیں۔

These big madarsas have good infrastructure, vast areas of land, big libraries, hostel facilities, sports fields etc. I wonder why they do not think in terms to change themselves in to modern universities, while maintain their core faculties of Sharia and Usuluddin, Tafsir and Hadis etc? As our Sikh community has done very successfully.
