Mohsen Qara’ati in the picture frame


In Afghanistan and Pakistan the title is given to graduates of a madrasa or Islamic school, who are then able to become a mosque leader, a teacher at a religious school, a local judge in a village or town, or to perform religious rituals. A person who is still a student at a madrasa and yet to graduate is a talib.

Beyond his scholarly contributions, Mohsen Qara’ati has played a pivotal role in promoting Islamic education and literacy . In 1981, he was appointed as the representative of Ayatollah Khomeini at the Literacy Movement Organization, aiming to combat illiteracy in post-revolutionary. His efforts in this domain were instrumental in promoting education across the country.
