Muslim Parents challenged to send children to school

Muslim Parents have been challenged to send children to both secular and religious schools to be productive leaders.

James Kaombe owner of Jack Shoppers made the challenge yesterday during a Madrassah competition held in Chemusa, Blantyre city.

Kaombe said it is every parent’s role to make sure that children are given both religious and secular education for them to fully contribute to Islam and the contemporary world.

On why they organized the competition, Kaombe said “Jack Shoppers understands that encouraging learners to be working hard in their studies is one way of uplifting status of Madrassah studies in the country.”

Kaombe then revealed that the competition will be taken to other areas of Blantyre before taking it to other districts

On his part chairperson of the Competition Hassan Twaib said he was impressed with how madrassah’s responded to the competition.

Twaib said the competition gave learners a platform to showcase what they are learning in their Madrassahs.

Commenting on the same, one of the judges of the competition, Haafiz Muzammil Gusto said  the competition is a milestone in improving quality of studies in Madrassahs.

“Despite minor challenges encountered it has been successful putting in mind that this was the first competition,” Gusto

The competition brought together madrassahs from within Kabula in Blantyre and some from Mangochi and winners went away with laptop bags, learning materials among other prizes.
