Education has a direct link with the existence of various positive behaviours in a society. The more a society is educated, the more it is civilised, mature, responsible, sensitive to issues, mindful of its rights and duties, and what not. On the contrary, illiteracy has a direct link with the various negative behaviours in a society. The more a society is illiterate and uneducated, the more it is uncivilised, immature, irresponsible, disinterested in collective issues, oblivious of its rights and duties and whatnot.
History is a witness to the fact that many nations excelled only when they gave importance to education. The era of the “Dark Ages” (approximately from the late fifth century AD to the mid-fifteenth century AD) is extremely notorious in Europe. This is due to the fact that during that era Europe was uneducated and, accordingly, behaved in an uncivilised and irresponsible manner. During the same period, however, the Muslim Ummah was going through an “era of awakening” because it gave importance to the fields of education, scientific inventions and discoveries, literature and culture.
