A Lady and Her Two Daudgters
Narrated Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) : A lady along with her two daughters came to me asking (for some alms), but she found nothing with me except one date which I gave to her and she divided it between her two daughters, and did not eat anything herself, and then she got up and went away. Then the Prophet (peace and blessing be upon him) came in and I informed him about this story. He said, "Whoever is put to trial by these daughters and he treats them generously (with benevolence) then these daughters will act as a shield for him from Hell-Fire." It was related by Al-Bukhari

Message From Our Scholar
"Do not destroy the reward of your deeds of charity by reminding or bragging about it or by causing harm (thereafter)." 2:264. Any deed we do to assist others in any way must be done with humbleness & solely for the pleasure of the Almighty. Those who keep reminding people of how they were helped by them, or brag about it will nullify the reward of that deed just like those who cause harm to them thereafter would.

Introduction

Muslims in Malawi are greatly experiencing problems and suffering in their pursuit of their mundane aspects of life which in a greater detail affects their effective spiritual development. The root cause of such suffering is the lack of proper education among Muslims in the country. The type of education referred to here is the one that focuses on the Islamic aspects of both the mundane and spiritual realms of life; where the dictates of the Quran and Sunnah prevail over the prevailing western-pseudo-Christian values.

This paper outlines some of the practical challenges currently facing Muslims in Malawi and proposes possible solutions in overcoming most of these challenges. However, to best appreciate such challenges, a brief Muslim historical background is presented along with the discussion.

 The paper starts by giving a brief description of the Malawian Muslim who is at the centre of the ensuing discussion. The paper then presents a preliminary overview of the geography, population, economy and politics of Malawi with a brief relation to Muslims. The paper also moves on to present the major challenges Muslims face in the country. The section is then followed by a brief historical background and link to the current state of Muslims in Malawi especially as it relates to education. Islamization of knowledge has also been discussed briefly as a possible panacea to the current malaise in the education of Muslims in Malawi. The paper also includes sections that address issues such as activities of Muslim organizations, Muslim representation vis-à-vis country authorities, and Muslim relations with the Muslim World. Finally, the last section proposes some of the practical solutions aimed at overcoming the challenges raised with a specific focus to the Islamization of knowledge agenda.

 The presentation has adopted an approach where most of the demographic aspects of the Muslims will come side by side with the issues and challenges mentioned so as to raise the proper awareness and extent of the problems Muslims continue to face in the country.
