THE ALMAJIRI EDUCATION SYSTEM

 Author: Prof. Sani Abubakar Lugga  Publisher: Lugga Press
 Description:

From the advent of Islam into Kanem-Borno and then into Hausaland, the Almajiri Education System provided for the great educational needs of the Muslims in those areas.
That system was called “Makarantar Allo”, meaning a school where wooden slate (Allo) was used.
Sheikh Usman Danfodio, Sheikh Muhammad Al-Amin Al-Kanemi, Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, Sir Ahmadu Bello Sardaunan Sokoto, Sir Kashim Ibrahim Wazirin Borno, President Shehu Shagari, President Umaru Musa Yar’adua, General Muhammadu Buhari, the Sultan of Sokoto, the Shehu of Borno, the Emir of Gwandu, the Emir of Kano, the Emir of Katsina, General Murtala Mohamed, General Ibrahim Babangida, General Sani Abacha, General Abdussalami Abubakar, General Hassan Usman Katsina, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, Sheikh Sharif Ibrahim Saleh, Sheikh Abubakar Gumi, Sheikh Dahiru Bauchi, Sheikh Nasiru Kabara, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, Alhaji Aminu Dantata, Alhaji Mai Deribe; and all other Muslim Northerners, who are today above the ages of 50 to 60 years, were products of “Makarantar Allo”!!! Yes, each one of them sat at the feet of his Malam and used “Allo” to study the Glorious Qur’an.
How was this distinguished system of education allowed to degenerate into a vocation for helpless, hungry and sickly children wearing tattered clothes, holding small bowls and roaming the streets in an undignified manner begging for alms? What happened to the responsibility placed by Islamic jurisprudence on Parents, on Leaders and on the Wealthy? This Book seeks to answer these and the many other questions on this subject. It also presents the true perspectives on, and the possible solutions to the problems of “Makarantar Allo”, the current infamous Almajiri System, which has been allowed to become a Time Bomb, which is about to explode.
