Education

Every Saturday and Sunday, there is a class for young local Muslims, beginning around 8 O'clock to the noon prayer (dhuhr). The mosque also receives 20 students each year for parents who can't afford to send their children to a government school. However, most of them are from the other part of the country, rather in Chiang Mai. The students are both Chinese and non-Chinese Muslims.

Famous quotes containing the word education:

    Nothing in education is so astonishing as the amount of ignorance it accumulates in the form of inert facts.
    Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

    Law without education is a dead letter. With education the needed law follows without effort and, of course, with power to execute itself; indeed, it seems to execute itself.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    The legislator should direct his attention above all to the education of youth; for the neglect of education does harm to the constitution. The citizen should be molded to suit the form of government under which he lives. For each government has a peculiar character which originally formed and which continues to preserve it. The character of democracy creates democracy, and the character of oligarchy creates oligarchy.
    Aristotle (384–323 B.C.)
