Islam is complete way of life. To gain knowledge about the various aspects of worship, transactions, society, etiquettes and all the fundamental rules and regulations is mandatory on every Muslim. I am very much happy that one of the respected organisations, Board of Islamic Education Karnataka, after preparing an ideal syllabus, is successfully working among Muslims and non-Muslims from a number of years, in an organised manner. I would like to thank them from the bottom of my heart and I pray to Allah to reward all the people who are involved in this. Aameen.

Even I participated in the program of Board of Islamic Education Karnataka and also had a look at their aims and objectives. Generally organisations write their aims and objectives, but practically they are not the same. But, Alhamdulillah the targets set by the Board of Islamic Education are also realised. Board of Islamic Education Karnataka, has done a significant job in identifying the various aspects which are against Islam and Muslims in the prescribed Government syllabus and making effort to remove them from the same. Including such a task in their planning is really an important act. The way Board of Islamic Education Karnataka is striving is an act of appreciation. May Allah grant progress to Board of Islamic Education in leaps and bounds.
