Higher education in Muslim contexts is often criticised for being incapable either of contributing to the socio-cultural and civilisational developments of society or of doing research and producing knowledge of a high standard. While the international organisations accuse universities of not helping the societies to become knowledge based and to compete at the global level, some Muslim scholars call for the creation of "authentic Islamic" educational structures that would, as they think, solve the problems of higher education. In addition, since 9/11 some have been accusing Islam and its institutions, especially madrasas of being terrorist establishments. Yet, these criticisms fail to consider the diverse historical evolutions of social institutions, including those of higher education, and the way political, ideological and economic contexts have an impact on them. These claims and generalisations are often made without sufficient evidence from the grass root level or conducting in-depth qualitative or historical research on the subject."--Publisher's description. 410 0$aRoutledge Contemporary South Asia Series 606 $aEducation, Higher$zIslamic countries 606 $aEducation, Higher$zPakistan 606 $aIslamic education$zPakistan 606 $aIslamic education 606 $aIslamic universities and colleges$zPakistan 606 $aIslamic universities and colleges 615 0$aEducation, Higher 615 0$aEducation, Higher 615 0$aIslamic education 615 0$aIslamic education. 615 0$aIslamic universities and colleges 615 0$aIslamic universities and colleges. 676 $a378.53 700 $aMuborakshoeva$b Marodsilton$f1967-,$01553024 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910785892503321 996 $aIslam and higher education$93813247 997 $aUNINA
