[edit]- The education to be imparted through this religious Institution will have to be in accordance to my wishes and aspirations. I am undertaking this responsibility entirely for the pleasure of Allah, who says (in the Holy Qur'an), "And let there be among you a group who should invite (humanity) towards goodness."
