About

[edit]

The network of moderate Ahle Sunnat Wal Jamaat ASJ madrasas across the country are centrally registered under the Tanzeem-ul-Madaris Ahl-e-Sunnat ASJ education board.[8][9] It was formed in 1959 in Lahore. The board examination and scheme covers boys and girls Madarsas of Pakistan.[10][11] The board is affiliated with Pakistan Madrasah Education Board (PMEB) under Ordinance No.XL of 2001.[12] The board is also part of association of (Ittehad Tanzimat Madaris-e-Deeniyat) five boards of other movements working in the country.[13]. The board is opponent of the Wahabi doctrine as propagated by Saudi Arabia.[14]

Jamia Naeemia Lahore is the central office of Tanzeem. It conducts examination according to its own scheme and syllabus. [15][16]

Around 10,000 madrassahs are administered by Tanzeem-ul-Madaris Pakistan.[17] It has 3000 institutions in Khyber Pakhtunwa and 1000 in the area of Hazara.[18] [19]

In most populous Punjab state the board has maximum 5584 Madarsas in comparison to others. In Lahore 336, Sheikhupura 336, Gujranwala 633, Rawalpindi 387, Faisalabad 675, Sargodha 461, Multan 944, Sahiwal 458, D.G.Khan 605, Bahawalpur 749 madarsa are affiliated with the Tanzeem. The Madarsas of Tanzeem are rarely involved in militancy which is maximum in Deobandis. In population, Barelvis or traditional Sunnis outnumber all other sects combined. They are about 53.4% of total population of the province.[20]

The final degree of Tanzeem-Ul-Madaris is equal to the MA Islamic Studies or MA Arabic in Pakistan.[21] Earlier Federal Interior Minister A. Rehman Malik demanded that Tanzeem-ul-Madaris should be awarded the status of Board and science and Arts subjects would be taught to students in the seminaries.[22] Sunni madaris have taught same curriculum in their madaris as it was taught by Mullah Nizamuddin Sihalvi of Farangi Mahal.[23]

Office bearers

[edit]

Four education systems are being run under this organisation.[24] Dr.Sarfraz Ahmed Naeemi, was earlier head of the Tanzeem-ul-Madaris Pakistan, has been known for his anti-Taliban stances, was killed by Talibani suicide Bomber.[25]

Madarsa Reforms

[edit]

Tanzeemul-Madaris made alterations in their curriculum by their own perceiving the threat of interference by the state in the name of reform. Deobandi Wafaq-ul-Madaris and Tanzeem-ul-Madaris Ahle Sunnat rejected the recommendation of National Committee for making of Deeni Madaris education similar to that of formal education system rather they preferred their own designed sub-division into six levels. They accepted the duration of scheme of studies i.e 16 years from the proposals of National Committee for Deeni Madaris. [26]

Aims and Objective

[edit]

Tanzeem declares that it would be for religious education only and remain non-political in nature. It calls for Islamic revivalism. It also tends to inculcate modern education with greater use of information and technology.[27] Following are the aims and objectives.[28]

  • To produce a generation who both understand and apply the call of the Quran and Sunnah
  • To enhance students with traditional Islamic sciences
  • To produce scholars who serve Islam
  • To convey the divine message to all mankind
  • To represent true Islam and lead Muslim Ummah
  • To motivate an Islamic revival

Recent

[30] Further, TM is cooperating with the Federal government of Pakistan in implementing common curriculum all over the country.[31] but rejected Scrutiny of mosques, seminaries under FATF agenda.
