RAHBAR-e-Banaat
A Madrasa-cum-School
for holistic education and guidance of girls – 1st
school project of Bihar Anjuman
Details @ http://school.biharanjuman.org/
125 girls are getting primary education, since 1st December, with 3 teachers. Construction of first building - a hostel building started in 1st week of May, and foundation work is already completed – now, funds are needed to reach the plinth level, and move further. Yateem (orphan) girls need to be accommodated in this hostel, along with lady teachers who do not belong to this area.  Vision: Educational empowerment of Muslim women Mission: Absolutely Free Comprehensive and Wholesome Education [Islamic + Contemporary] thorough a madarsa-cum-school and a Vocational Training centre for Muslim girls – one madarsa in every district of Bihar and Jharkhand, insha-Allah. Location: Rahimabad village, near Tajpur block, district: Samastipur, State: Bihar Why girls only? There is no residential madarsa for Muslim girls, in Bihar or Jharkhand. Existing schools and madarsas provide education to boys and girls, both. Unfortunately, both sit in the same classroom, even in higher classes. Illiteracy among women is the main reason for the degradation of our cultural value system. If our upbringing and education can make them true ambassadors of Islam, jannah will become easily accessible to us. On the other hand, if our upbringing and education take them in the opposite direction, we would be the source of destruction for our society. The choice is ours! What kind of education? Deeni Ta'aleem is inclusive and comprehensive, as every education and training is deeni, and there is no other type of education in Islam. The types we know may be sub-sections, but placing them parallel to deeni ta'aleem is a fallacy. This school will provide holistic education by teaching science along with Islam, relevant languages, and will provide vocational training. Why another educational institution? This is planned as a centre for quality education. Pulling away poor children from their homes is, in fact, pulling away an earning hand. If quality education is not provided, the whole family is being cheated and child's future gets ruined. This school is conceived to impart quality education which really serves the purpose of educational empowerment to our girls. Appointment of Teachers: two permanent teachers (one for Islamic studies, and another for Contemporary education), and one temporary teacher are employed, and their salaries sponsored. Three more are urgently required – please sponsor their salaries. Operational Mechanism: 1. No collection of zakah money by teachers: Teachers are ladies, so they will not collect donations, thus there will be no sharing by them from the amounts |
contributed by donors - the madarsa culture of giving away 50% to the teacher-collector would not be followed. Teachers will be paid a higher salary than those in other madarsa, to compensate them for the loss of income from zakah collections (50% of all collections). 2. Residential facility to orphan and destitute girls will start by early 2011, with accommodation for 50 students, and more will be added, as upper floors get ready. 3. Warden (Matron): A warden for the hostel will stay within the madarsa campus. She will be a mature, educated practicing Muslim lady, from good cultural background. 4. Prayer facilities will be provided from the beginning, and training will be provided to students on all aspects of practicing Islam in daily life. Monitoring mechanism: Bihar Anjuman has chapters in various places, and a three-layer monitoring will happen. First layer of monitoring is from local chapter. Second layer of monitoring will be from Patna, Delhi and Aligarh chapters. Third layer of monitoring will come from mentors from online groups who would be urged to visit the school, audit the process, accounts, etc., and guide the students and teachers. They would also be requested to submit their findings to the online groups. First school (madrasa) project of Bihar Anjuman needs your full support so that quality of education in Bihar and Jharkhand can change forever. Immediate financial requirements for the madarsa hostel: Rs. 20 lakhs for 3 storeyed hostel. Plot size: 6 katha land (10,500 ft2, or 1,200 sq. yard) Classes for primary sections started on 1st December 2010. More classes will be added as more funds become available, and hostel building becomes ready. Donations: All kinds of donations are acceptable. The students in this madarsa will be from poor families, most of whom are not going to any schools or madrasas, at all. Therefore, zakah funds will be used to impart literacy to them. Yateem girls will be accommodated in the hostel by 2010 end. Please donate for one or more rooms of the 24 rooms of the hostel building – the room can carry a plaque of your name/ a buzurg’s name, as per your choice.

| Seven Wonders of the World A group of students was asked to list what they thought were the present “Seven Wonders of the World.” Though there were some disagreements, the following received the most votes: 1. Egypt’s Great Pyramids 2. Taj Mahal 3. Grand Canyon 4. Panama Canal 5. Empire State Building 6. St. Peter’s Basilica 7. China’s Great Wall While gathering the votes, the teacher noticed that one quiet student hadn’t turned in her paper yet. So she asked the girl if she was having trouble with her list. | The girl replied, “Yes, a little. I couldn’t quite make up my mind because there were so many.” The teacher said, “Well, tell us what you have, and maybe we can help.” The girl hesitated, then read, “I think the ‘Seven Wonders of the World’ are: 1. to see 2. to hear 3. to touch 4. to taste 5. to feel 6. to laugh 7. and to love.” |
