Jamia Darul Uloom Naseeria Ghorghushti’s Curriculum of Dars-e-Nizami, comprising contemporary subjects and Islamic sciences, implemented in the Attock district.
Up to this point, the education consisted of contemporary subjects spanning a duration of ten years. Following this, an eight-year curriculum focusing on Arabic and Islamic studies is offered, known as the “Dars-e-Nizami.” This curriculum is divided into four stages, each lasting two years: Aammah, Khaassah, Aaliyah, and Aalimiyyah.
Calligraphy, Urdu, Social Studies, Mathematics, Persian Composition, and Arabic Composition are mandatory written exercises. The teachers check the exercise books and provide corrections.
Two assignments are compulsory for students related to each lesson. One is to study the book for the next day’s lesson so that the student’s mind is prepared to understand the lesson with insight and alertness in front of the teacher. The second assignment is to revise the previously studied lesson. “Revision” is a term used in the seminaries, where students sit in small groups during the day or night after studying with the teacher. One of the students repeats the lesson according to the method taught by the teacher. This method is a distinctive feature of Dars-e-Nizami, through which each student not only solidifies the lesson in their mind but also receives practical training in teaching and expressing their thoughts. Revision is mandatory for almost every class of students.
Each class has three examinations during the year: quarterly, semi-annual, and annual. Students who achieve good marks are encouraged through rewards.
Upon completing each level, a certificate is awarded to the student, and a formal certificate is issued upon the completion of the curriculum. In Pakistan, this certificate is now considered equivalent to an MA in Islamic Studies and Arabic in certain fields.
These activities include reading non-curricular books, organizing a session once a week for speech practice, providing cleanliness services for the Jamia, and participating in sports during leisure time only at the sports field of Jamia Darul Uloom Naseeria.
