Allah Almighty, regarded as the noblest creation with the unique endowment of knowledge

articles and studies on Islamic philosophy and modern education. These objectives result high
value on stable educational framework. In the contemporary needs, educational institutes can
play a role in providing equal opportunity of religious knowledge and educational experience.
