Education and Modernization in the Balance of Sharia

Education is a discipline, it is a comprehensive way of thinking, speaking and acting for an individual, which results in building an active member within a healthy family. It is the core of every efficient society, full of care, compassion, and the desire of good for others. Therefore, if we set the balance of the Islamic Sharia to test the principles of modern discipline, set around two hundred years ago, we find that every right principle in fact is found in the Islamic discipline, Taught more than a thousand four hundred years ago by prophet Muhammad peace be upon him. And on the other hand, we find that all principles in opposition to the teachings of Islam, result eventually in the deterioration of righteous concepts and virtues. These results are clearly seen in western communities. Some of which are dismantled families, the outspread of vice, lost youths and wasted elderlies. We are immensely concerned for our Islamic communities being aware of “blind imitation” from which our prophet has warned us, that lead eventually to dark ends. Thus, it is a necessity that we never lose our grip of the Sharia balance, and that we pass every new trend we face through its filter first, for our Sharia is one from God, and what is right should never be overruled.
