Minister of Borders, Tribes and Tribal Affairs Noorullah Noori says Western countries are trying to create division among the people under the labels of madrassa and school, but he says they will not achieve their goals.

Speaking at a graduation ceremony for more than 700 students in Kabul, Noori added: “Seeing school and madrassa as separate is a Western idea and a conspiracy of occupiers. This is a corrupt plot by the enemies of the religion of Allah and of Afghanistan.”

Noori stated that the government is committed to religious education, especially modern sciences, and considers the country’s progress impossible without them.

He emphasized that today, jihad and the defense of the homeland are carried out based on technology, and that necessary attention has been given to this area as well.

At the ceremony, Mohammad Ali Jan Ahmad, the Deputy Minister of Borders and Tribal Affairs, described both religious and modern education as an obligation.

Jan Ahmad said: “Learning modern sciences is obligatory for religious affairs. If we acquire religious sciences to prepare ourselves to confront the infidels, then certainly modern sciences are also obligatory for us.”

The newly graduated students also called on the Islamic Emirate to provide more opportunities for them to continue their education.

Meanwhile, the ministry officials also said that during the past twenty years, efforts had been made to promote Western culture in Afghanistan.
