The need to balance the educational and spiritual needs of children, to address security challenges in the country has been stressed.

A Professor of Islamic Law, Faculty of Law, University of Ilorin, Prof Abdulrazak Abdulmajeed Alaro made the call at the 3rd Graduation Ceremony of AN-NUJOOM Schools, Ilorin Kwara state on Saturday.

Prof Alaro, who also urged parents to do a follow up on their children studies, added that they should not neglect their duties to school alone as he kicked against over parenting, over indulgence or pampering

While noted that parents should also shun material over indulgence, structural over indulgence, relational over indulgence where parents impose their wishes on their children, stressed the need for parents to give their children responsibility

The Professor of Law who also stressed the need for parents to address the the challenges of insecurity in the country noted that the root cause of insecurity was due to injustice, wrong step taken, negligent of education which resulted to out of school children.

According to him, some of them attended their own school. “Every step taken has its own consequences”.

He noted that bandits, kidnapers learnt their work in a particular school, adding that “anyone that goes to school must graduate and anyone that graduates must practice what he or she learnt according to as what is happening today”.

“Bandits, kidnapers have been allowed to be school on the street, under the bridges in the forest,” he said

He called on government at various levels to see the spiritual content of the educational systems as equally important as other components, adding that “every human being is a composition of two different things.

“As we have the body,we also have the spirit that makes the body to work and function as we continue to do our best in providing the necessary facility to train what constitutes the bodily aspect of us I think we need also to do at what constitutes the spiritual aspect of us as human being, they complement each another.

“We are not calling for giving or attaching importance to one and neglecting the other. If you look at those we read their stories and we regard as the the founding fathers of this nation, we see this very clear in their upbringing.

” They were morally upright and they performed excellently even in their academic pursuit,this is what we want to see coming into our thinking and into our planning. again, a situation where we will be relegating religious studies,what cater for the spiritual needs of our children to the background as been less important, I think it has cost us a lot as a nation.

“It is the duty of parents to educate their children, whoever is coming to assist us that doesn’t mean we transfer our responsibility 100 percent to such an entity and this is exactly what I’m witnessing, observing in the society.

Parents seems not to understand that they have a duty in the training in the education of their children any longer so long as they have money to send those children to schools, they don’t care.

The proprietor of AN-NUJOOM Schools, Ilorin Dr. Abdulraheem Olayiwola Kadir, who noted that school balanced both the spiritual and educational development of the children, urged parents to take education of their wards very serious and urged government to invest heavily on education be honest and sincere in governance to achieve success.

He also urged the graduands to uphold what they have learnt in the school

Muhammad Musa and other graduands expressed gratitude for achieving their educational ambition at that level and commended the school for all the subjects and the moral values impacted in their lives.
