The modern educational system faces a significant dilemma: the gap between traditional religious education and contemporary academic instruction. Students from conventional schools and universities often lack foundational religious knowledge, while graduates from religious madrasahs are frequently unprepared for the demands of the modern world. This imbalance is particularly pronounced in Muslim communities. Leaders and managers educated in secular institutions are proficient in worldly knowledge but often lack a deep understanding of the Quran, a vital source of guidance and faith. As Muslims, acquiring a basic understanding of the Quran and the Arabic language is essential for personal and communal growth.

To address this issue and bridge this gap in 1982 Dr Israr Ahmed (R.A) introduced “Raju Illal Quran Course” (Return to Qur’an course) for university graduates. His endeavor through the course was to equip individuals with the fundamental rules of the Arabic language and essential religious sciences necessary for reading and understanding the Quran. By integrating religious education with modern curricula, he aimed to cultivate well-rounded individuals who can navigate the complexities of the modern world while remaining true to their faith and values.
