Question
What is the Sunnah method of imparting Islamic education? How did the Sahaabah l e a r n f r o m R a s u l u l l a h (sallallahu alayhi wasallam)? And, how did the illustrious Mujtahid Imaams and the Fuqaha in general gain knowledge from the Sahaabah and the Taabi'een? Nowadays, Islamic courses resemble university courses with power point presentations at venues such as halls, universities, etc., sitting comfortably in rows on chairs. It seems that the spiritual dimension and spirit of the Musjid's atmosphere and environment are being abandoned, and an alternative more western methodology is being adopted to attract the so-called educated masses and youth. Although this is probably not haraam, would such an environment not reduce or even nullify the spiritual benefits of Deeni study courses and also reduce the prospect of acquiring Ilm for amal (practice)?
Answer
Leave alone the stupid 'PowerPoint presentations', the halls, the kuffaar seating arrangements and the other kuffaar paraphernalia associated with so-called 'islamic' study courses offered by deviates and pursued by youths and others trapped in satanic deception, the evils of western systems have extinguished Roohaaniyat (Imaani spiritualism) from even the orthodox Madaaris and Darul Ulooms who are increasingly being transformed into institutions of ignorance where Deeni knowledge is imparted for mundane objectives.
The barkat has been eliminated from the Madaaris of this age. The satanic daarul jahl of the NNB Jamiat has even stipulated that the Qur'aanic Knowledge will be imparted at their madhouse daarul jahl only if a student has a matric qualification. The madrasahs are increasingly emulating the style of the kuffaar college/university system, hence these madrasahs/darul ulooms are no longer producing Ulama-e-Haqqaani, Ulama-e-Rabbaani. The vast majority of fellows emerging from these abodes of ignorance and deviation is what is known as ulama-e-soo' (evil 'scholars') who treacherously betray Allah Ta'ala, Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and the Ummah.
The glittering and simple tareeqah of the Salaf-e-Saaliheen which was the tareeqah in the Madaaris of our Akaabereen has been expunged by the ulama-e-soo' – the new brand of flotsam masquerading as Ulama.
In fact, the new systems in emulation of kuffaar methodology, are haraam. The entire character of the Madrasah is being remoulded into forms of the kuffaar systems. This is tashabbuh bil kuffaar. The style of a genuine Darul Uloom should mirror the forlornness of Ghaar-e -Hira (The Cave of Hira) where the first Aayat of the Qur'aan was revealed. All branches of Shar'i Uloom stem from the Qur'aan Hakeem, hence it is imperative for the success of the Madaaris to retain the simple, poor and forlorn aura and atmosphere of Ghaar-e-Hira. The madaaris today are devoid of Roohaaniyat. They have scrapped the Sunnah. They are institutions of dhalaal where the shadows of Deeni Uloom are imparted for worldly objectives, not for the Aakhirah.
