Gheelle.T Posted October 16, 2009 It's been a long time coming, this will indeed transform the Kingdom's higher education system and hopefully will benefit the rest of Muslim world. Equipped with high tech research labs and state of art classrooms and campuses, this will be the King's legacy. check it's website here Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dhagax-Tuur Posted October 16, 2009 The muslims of the middle East and the muslim ummah in general badly need an educational uplift. Illaahow kuwii ka faa'iideysta ka yeel and more importantly, may they be those that apply the 'ilm in to their lives creatively. That is the bit that the 3rd world lacks.

Raamsade Posted October 17, 2009 This is a step forward in that it addresses one aspect of what the UN Arab Development Reports have repeatedly pointed out. But I have my doubts if it's enough. It's not enough to build more schools and labs and train more scientists, teachers and technicians... all that will amount to a naught if what is taught in science classes are determined by Imaams or have to conform to the agenda of the mosques. The Arab Development Reports have called for the rolling back of Islam's overbearing influence on all facets of Arab societies (politics, culture, science etc). Without limiting Islam to the mosque, forget about scientific and technological progress in the Arab world. you can read the Arab Development Reports here: http://www.arab-hdr.org/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
