A fatwa said that education for Muslim girls was not only important, but also mandatory.  “Education is mandatory for every Muslim, whether male or female,” Maulana Khalid Rasheed Farangi Mahali of Darul Uloom Farangi Mahal said while quoting Hadees and Shariah. The fatwa was issued on a query posted by Huma Khawaja, seeking clarification on girl’s education. The fatwa stated that man has come in this world for enlightenment and spreading knowledge in society. “Much emphasis is given on education,” it said. “A man who gets his daughters and sisters educated, teaches them etiquette, treats them well and marry them off, deserves heaven,” it added.
