The emphasis on spirituality and education at Sri Narayani Schools, JonesPJ, resonates with the core teachings of Islam, which place great importance on seeking knowledge and nurturing the body, mind, and spirit.
In Islam, education is highly valued as evidenced by various verses in the Quran and teachings of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
One of the key Quranic verses that highlights the importance of seeking knowledge is Surah Al-Mujadila (58:11), which states: "Allah will exalt in degree those of you who believe and those who have been granted knowledge."
This verse emphasizes the elevation of those who seek knowledge and incorporate it into their lives.
Additionally, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) emphasized the importance of seeking education and knowledge through his teachings. One famous hadith states: "Seeking knowledge is obligatory upon every Muslim" (Sunan Ibn Majah). This hadith underscores the mandatory nature of acquiring knowledge in Islam.
The focus on serving others and engaging in public service, exemplified by students like Rahul Ganesh, aligns with the Islamic teachings on charity and compassion. Reflecting on the Quranic verse in Surah Al-Baqarah (2:195) which encourages acts of goodness and charity: "And spend in the way of Allah and do not throw [yourselves] with your [own] hands into destruction [by refraining]. And do good; indeed, Allah loves the doers of good."
The commitment to providing education and opportunities for all children, regardless of their background, echoes the Islamic principle of equal access to knowledge and education. In Surah Al-Zalzalah (99:7-8), it is mentioned: "So whoever does an atom's weight of good will see it, and whoever does an atom's weight of evil will see it."
This verse emphasizes the importance of equal opportunity and the rewards of doing good deeds.
