Historical Impact of Madrasah of Arab Countries on Indian Madrasah Education

Abstract

Indian Madrasah Education got a significant influence in terms of curriculum, pedagogy, and other systems. This article attempted to search the historical impact of the madrasah of Arab countries on Indian madrasah education. Education was highly valued in Islam, and as the religion spread among different cultures, education became an important means of establishing a common and unified social order. Awareness was split into three sections by the middle of the ninth century: Islamic sciences, metaphysical and natural sciences (Greek knowledge), and literary arts. The Islamic sciences, which stressed the study of the Quran (Islamic scripture) and the hadith (the Prophet Muhammad’s (SM) sayings and traditions) and their analysis by leading scholars and theologians, were regarded as the most important, but Greek scholarship was also esteemed, though less virtuous.
