Support our IT lab in the girls college
Alhamdulillah Zia Ul Ummah Foundation has always valued the importance of educating girls in both Islamic and secular education. This prepares them for their influential roles in the future.
As part of our aim to educate girls in Pakistan, we are appealing to renovate and equip our IT lab in the girls college.
The benefits of having IT skills go far beyond the information technology industry. Strong technical skills in IT are essential in today’s changing world and by learning these skills, they will improve both their personal and professional life.
This essential lab in our purpose build girls college will provide a great boost to the educational needs of female students from across Pakistan and help them to get the education they deserve.
The Importance of female education
A great role model for the education of women is Aisha, the mother of the believers. She was one of the greatest scholars of Islam among the early Muslims. The learned companions of the Prophet would go to her for answers and advice.
In fact, there is a long Islamic tradition to educate women and this is mainly because they are the future mothers who pass on the learnings to children. The tarbiyah a child receives from the mother in the formative year affects the child for the rest of their lives.
The Prophet would teach his daughters about Islam and the attributes of Allah.
Abdul Hameed reported: His mother served some of the daughters of the Prophet and she told him the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, would teach his daughter.
With better educated mothers, we can ensure a better ummah.
