Mother tongue policy pays: 'Lap lessons' catch students' fancy

NEPALGUNJ - The government policy of 'education for all in one's mother tongue' seems to have had effect in Banke district. The government schools there are imparting education in Urdu and Arabic languages.

Among the schools running classes in these languages are Nepalgunj-based Anathalaya Gausiya Secondary School (AGSS) and Madarasa Darul Ulum Lower Secondary School (MDULSS) at Barakatiya, the Raniyapur-based Nepal Rastriya Primary School and Himalaya Madarasa Primary School at Rajhena.

"We started imparting education in these languages after Muslim students got attracted towards madrasa, an institution imparting instruction in religious law," said Madrasa Garib Nawaz Primary School Principal Mubarak Ali Gujar.

He said there are no difficulties in teaching as most of the students are Muslim. With the schools imparting education in their mother tongue, the enrolment of Muslim students is on the rise.

After government schools started imparting education in Urdu and Arabic languages, madrasas have been merged in government schools. Rajhena-based Madarasa Garib Nawaz was merged in the local Himalaya Primary School.

Gujar said that the school management committee decided to merge the madrasa after students started leaving the school to be admitted to the madrasa. The school has 201 students and runs classes up to the fifth grade.

The AGSS and MDULSS offer holiday on Friday to allow Muslim students and teachers to offer the Muslim sabbath namaz. The schools have also managed a system for offering the sabbath namaz on the school premises.

"Urdu is compulsory till Grade 8 and a major subject in the secondary level," said AGSS Principal Tasobar Khan. Established in 1982, the school has more than 750 students including two from the Tharu community.

The school is the only educational institution in the district offering secondary level education in Urdu and Arabic languages.

There are 119 madrasas in the districts. District Education Officer Daman Singh Chaudhary said at least 45 of them are to be merged with government schools. "The move is meant for regulating madrasas," he said.

Worship and Song and Praise (Worship: Lesson 6 ...

Introduction: When I was young, I used to wonder about the oddest things. For example, my parents told me that dogs see things only in black and white, they do not see in color. That made me wonder if I saw things just like other people? Could people see colors differently, and no one would know? These days, I wonder the same about worship. Do all Christians understand true worship? I recall in college the wonder and power of the singing in Pioneer Memorial Church. Get a couple of thousand people together, a pipe organ worth (I guess) hundreds of thousands of dollars, and Dr. Becker playing, and you could feel the power of praise! These days I feel it in much smaller groups with contemporary praise songs. King David felt it too, although we do not know exactly what kind of music he used. Let's jump into our study of the Bible and learn more about King David and his understanding about worshiping God!

The Road to Rejoice What does David mean when he says that he has only sinned against God? I've got a couple of names of people who it would seem that David sinned against! (If we are able to undo the harm that we have created we should do that. But, the real sin issue is between God and me. The person you have sinned against cannot forgive your sin, only God can do that.) What do you think David is trying to teach those of us who live after the time of the sanctuary service on earth? (David is talking about a mechanical approach to sin. Do you keep confessing the same sins so that the confession becomes a routine? God is not looking for dead animals. He is not looking for lifeless confessions. God is looking for a change in attitude.) The next time that you are singing a hymn or song of praise, look at the lyrics carefully and determine who is being praised. Consider, for example, the hymn "Higher Ground." Here is part of it: "I'm pressing on the upward way, new heights I'm gaining every day, still praying as I'm onward bound, Lord, lead me on to higher ground." Who is being praised here? We started out talking about whether people see colors the same, and whether people feel the power of worship the same. King David teaches us that the power of emotion in worship comes from the release from sin, an attitude of dependence on God, and gratitude about what God has done for us not only with the sin problem, but with the trials and dangers of life.
