“The beautiful dress does not reflect beauty. The beauty is the beauty of knowledge and morals. The one whose father dies is not an orphan. The real orphan is he who brings bad name to his tribe.” Hazrat Ali.
What is meant by bringing bad name to the tribe? Islam lays a concept of equality of mankind but the people who have knowledge and who are educated are superior to others. Ignorant minds are the worst out of mankind. Islamic Schools are teaching the Muslims to how to uplift their souls and raise there honor in the eyes of Allah.
Muslims Learn Quran and make them self spiritually strong. The Quran says:
“Are the educated and uneducated equal?” 39:9
If we read what Allah says about the superiority of Adam in the Quran we would find out that it was because of the knowledge that Allah gave him. Following what Allah says about Adam in surah a Bakara:
He taught Adam all the names then presented them to the angels, saying, "Give me the names of these, if you are right." They said, "Be You glorified, we have no knowledge, except that which You have taught us. You are the Omniscient, Most Wise." He said, "O Adam, tell them their names." When he told them their names, He said, "Did I not tell you that I know the secrets of the heavens and the earth? I know what you declare, and what you conceal." When we said to the angels, "Fall prostrate before Adam," they fell prostrate, except Satan; he refused, was too arrogant, and a disbeliever. (2:30-33).
The importance of education and knowledge is evident from the first verse of Quran in surah e Alaq.
“Read in the name of thy Lord who created”.
There is another verse of the Holy Quran asking the Prophet (P.B.U.H) to pray:
“Lord increase my knowledge”.
