RASC: Sources in Kunduz province say that the education situation in Kunduz schools and universities is worrying.
The educational curriculum imposed by the Taliban on schools and universities focuses more on religion than other topics.
Although the Taliban group has not succeeded in publishing textbooks for students, but the subjects of religious sciences are taught by Mullahs in schools and universities.
Zubair, one of the students of the university, states with concern that Tafsir, Sirat al-Nabi, Tajweed, Islamic moral system, Islamic social system and other topics of Islamic culture are taught in Kunduz University.
He says that before the fall of the republican regime, Kunduz University had well-educated, experienced professors with master’s and doctoral degrees who taught science, Persian language and literature, and social sciences to students. On the other hand, by occupation of the country by the Taliban group, many the teachers either started freelancing or became refugees to other countries and today Kunduz University facing lack of professional professors.
But it is not only “Zubair” who complains about the abnormal and highly Islamized state of the university and schools of Kunduz, but most of the students’ families are worried that their sons will graduate from the university before becoming an economist, lawyer or technology professional. They will be a full-fledged Mullah.
Similarly, one of the retired teachers of Shir Khan High School, whose son is a student in one of the schools in Kunduz, stated with pain and hesitation: “I am not so worried about my daughters not going to school, but I am worried about my son who is going to school. Because the content of their educational curriculum is to encourage young people to Jihad, to stay away from women and progress and development, and I am afraid that my son will be trained as a bomber instead of becoming a scientist.
