It is rightly said that the foundation of every state is the education of its youth. Next in importance to freedom and justice is ‘Education’ without which neither justice nor freedom can be maintained and, you very well know, that we keep both ‘freedom’ and ‘justice’ close to our heart.
Education commences at the mother’s knee and every word spoken within the hearsay of little Children lends towards the formation of their character. Education, if properly imparted, leaves an indelible and lasting impact on their budding minds.
If we work upon marble, it will perish; if we work upon brass, time will efface it; if we rear places of worship, they will crumble into dust. But if we work upon immortal minds; if we imbue them with principles, with the just fear of Allah The Almighty and love for our country and our fellow-beings, we engrave on tablets something which will enlighten all eternity.
And this is our ultimate aim, utmost endeavour. May Allah The Almighty give us the strength and wisdom to live up to the expectations of our nation – Ameen!
