assalamu alaikum bros / sis,
I am Mashuqur Rahman from Bangladesh.
Alhamdulillah I am proposing a new project - if any of you are interested on joining this project after reading my proposal - as I cannot go on alone - please kindly reply / contact me.
Now here is the idea -
We all know there r many sites in the internet which provides us with great lectures by great scholars on virtually every islamic subjects. Alhamdulillah we r getting greatly benefitted from it. But despite all that - when we listen to the lectures - to tell the truth very few of us ever STUDY it - at most we listen to it few times thats all.
But how about we make some kind of online university like thing - mind it ONLINE - where scholars kindly provides us with a series of lectures on a particular topics (audio or video) , and corresponding reading material and if they are able to- they can provide us with questions & assignments (broad /short or mcq questions). So that registered users can actuallly test themselves - give exams - do assignments. And when they pass and only when they pass they are able to take the next course and so on. In that way we can alhamdulillah to some extent make sure that people are actually learning something seriously.
We will inshAllah make a proper syllabus with the help of scholars from very basic to intermidiate to advanced. It will be for those people who cannot afford to go to any islamic university to get serious islamic education - because of time /money or any other reasons - but nevertheless has this passion to get serious islamic education in their hearts.
As we know scholars are usually busy most of the time - we wont burden them with taking care of any care taking jobs of the course. Only thing they will provide us is with the lecture which we will inshAllah record audio / visually and upload them online - there will be one of us volunteers who will be in charge of one course (1 in-charge every course) - who will gather questions / comments / quiz answers from other students and forward them to the scholars - they will act as the TA.
About registration - when one registers for a course - some volunteer(who has taken this course previously) from that country will contact him by phone/mobile/email - and guide him/her through the whole course - and be his/her group leader. There can be several such groups.
This is the general idea. I have a little experience working with web development (php/mysql) - I have been working on similar kind of educational project in my country since last december. It will be great if you bros/sis please join me in this project to make it a success, I have not started it yet looking for fellow developers with similar interests, as it is always better to have more people in the development. I am sure better ideas are lurking in ur head to enhance the whole idea and make even better than what i have just said - so please join me. my email address is - mashuq@hotmail.com - or u can post reply here.
BTW - This is a totally non-profit & open source project. Please dont worry about where we will host our project or where we can manage audio/video recording stuffs - inshAllah Allah will manage those for us somehow once we start the project.
I have already posted this in forum.mpdac.com and an Indian brother have kindly replied. We both are looking for more volunteers - to join us and with Allah's help make this project successful.
waiting for your reply sincerely
