What is traditional learning? Students in the hot Mauritanian desert are reclining in nomadic tents, listening to their teacher exposit a classical treatise on Maliki law, meticulously taking notes on a clay tablet that they will later memorize rote and wipe clean... Students in the bustling city of Damascus are catching a taxi to their teacher’s apartment, where they will sip tea on comfortable sofas as they listen to a lesson on logic, jotting notes in the margins of the modern printed books, recording their teacher’s voice on an mp3 player for future reference... Students in rural India are sitting cross-legged on the floor among a sea of other students, absorbing the words of their teacher as he explains a hadith in Sahih al-Bukhari from a handwritten manuscript. These are all forms of traditional learning. https://qibla/about/how-we-teach/
