Islamic International School Mumbai – Dual Medium of Instruction – English and Arabic — Dr Zakir Naik

SKLI-11

The timings of our school is quite long, it starts from 8’ O clock to 4:30 for nursery it is less, we started the school from nursery from the age of 3 and the first year we had nursery, junior KG, Senior KG and 1st standard only four classes, only four grades and the timings from 1st onwards 1st upwards is from 8’ O clock to 4:30 and the people said that the timing is too long, student wont be able to take it Alhumdulillah we divide the day into 12 periods each of 35 minutes on an average 2 periods everyday are for extra curricular activities, martial arts whether it be Taekwando, Judo, swimming whether it be computers and all the extra curricular activities on an average 2 periods a day, every child it’s compulsory should learn swimming, Taekwando, Judo, martial arts for the boys football etc. and the balanced 10 periods, 5 periods are in English and 5 in Arabic.

Our school has dual medium of instruction English and Arabic. Arabic is the language of the Qur’an it’s the language in which the last and final revelation was revealed, we realize, I realize the drawback that because our parents did not think it important that we should learn Arabic as a language we know it’s a drawback even today so we want to see to it that our children our next generation they should know Arabic as their mother tongue. So 5 periods in Arabic and 5 are in English but natural the 5 periods are there in Arabic, they are Islamic whether it be Arabic language, whether it be Hifz, whether it be Tilaawat, whether it be hadith, whether it be Qur’an Tafsir and all the Islamic studies that we have when we give the Tafsir of the Qur’an, it’s not in English or Urdu like back home in India, Pakistan we have Islamic studies in Urdu, in the western countries we either have in Urdu or we have in English, there we have in Arabic, Arabic to Arabic.

So the child from the age of 3 when he joins Nursery school he starts learning Arabic, when we teach him A for Allah, B for Bismillah along with that Min Alif Asadun, Min Baa Baitun, Min Taa Tufahun, so from the age of 3 the child is ingrained with the Arabic language and in the Arabic period the children cannot speak English they should only speak Arabic, in the English period only English no Arabic and most of Arabic teachers they have gone to Saudi Arabia and they have graduated from the Islamic University of Madinah so that even he pronunciation is correct besides the Arabic period that is there the 5 periods in English 1 period everyday is Islamic Studies in English that’s for Da’wah because a child when he does Da’wah with the non-Muslims it will be in English he cant do it in Arabic, there are very few Arab non-Muslims. So one period is Islamic studies in English, the balance 4 periods on an average is Maths, English, Geography, History, Science etc.
