Abstract
Acquiring and applying knowledge for any Muslim is a basic requirement for all Muslim men and women so that they can understand and practice the religious ideals well. Education is a process through which an individual or a nation highlight and clarifies its identity on a pure entity and this process works to shape any nation and improve its sense and consciousness. This is the process through which the new generation is taught the manners of living and this is the means through which the goals and duties of life are enlightened. It is through education that the nation transfers its cultural, intellectual, heritage to future generations. Education and training, knowledge and awareness are of fundamental importance for the development of any society. Islam has given primary importance to knowledge and piety, education and training, from the beginning. Because the Islamic Sharia has imposed equal rights and duties on both men and women and both are equally responsible for fulfilling their duties.
