"And the believers should not all go out to fight. Of every troop of them, a party only should go forth, that they (who are left behind) may gain sound knowledge in religion, and that they may warn their folk when they return to them, so that they may guard themselves against evil." [Al-Tauba 9:122]
Education makes man a right thinker and a proper decision-maker by providing him knowledge from the external world, teaching him to rationalize and reason, and familiarizing him with thorough understanding of history, so that he may be a better judge of the present. By means of education, he finds himself in a room with all its windows open to the wide range of opportunities life offers.
The field of education, covering ethics, philosophy, religion, skills and general knowledge, is a very broad and essential one. The significance of learning in allowing the individual to put his potentials to optimal use is self-evident. Without education, the training of the human minds is incomplete. No individual is a human being in the proper sense until he has been educated.
With these visions in mind, MasterPIES is pleased to inform you about our new initiative as our effort to cater the need of today’s Muslims to be competent people who will be educated in the Islamic sciences as well as all other beneficial disciplines.
(The term, ‘continuing education’, describes the process and opportunity to learn new skills and acquire knowledge beyond what is taught in our formal schooling years.)
