Caravanserai

TASHKENT -- The Spiritual Administration of Muslims of Uzbekistan (DUMU) has ordered 12 religious educational institutions to offer courses in Arabic and the Koran, Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL)'s Uzbek service reported Wednesday (November 15).

Mufti Usmonkhon Alimov, head of the DUMU, issued the order November 13 (Monday).

Starting on December 1, the schools, which include a number of madrassas and one university, will begin offering six-month-long courses on the Koran, tajweed (Koran recitation) and Arabic. Tuition for each course will cost 1 million UZS ($123), according to DUMU.

DUMU plans to allow more than 700 individuals to enrol.

The decision to offer the courses came after many years of requests from the public, said DUMU deputy chairman Sheikh Abdulaziz Mansur.

It is bad that it's 1000 per each person and it would be good if madrasas were after 9

How is it possible to teach Koran for 1000000 sums, it's OK to teach Arabic, but teaching word of Allah for money

I do not know how sinful is it to teach Koran for 1 000 000 sums, but price of the sin of the fitna your comment shall cause must be high.

Assalomu aleykum. I am from Men Samarkand. There are Arab Language classes in Al-Bukhari Center. Center is far from city. It is hard for us to go classes. We request that they will open Arab language classes and Quran teaching classes in the city, too. It will be good for everybody. Hazrat Mufti, we hope that you will look into our request. Wallohu a'lam.
