What is the role of Muslim ulama in Indian republic
Answers
Answer:
In Islam, the ulama (/ˈuːləˌmɑː/; Arabic: علماء ʿUlamāʾ, singular عالِم ʿĀlim, "scholar", literally "the learned ones",[1] also spelled ulema; feminine: alimah [singular] and uluma [plural])[2] are the guardians, transmitters and interpreters of religious knowledge, of Islamic doctrine and law.[2]
By longstanding tradition, ulama are educated in religious institutions (madrasas). The Quran [Word of Allah (The God)] and Sunnah [authentic Hadith(narration)], are the sources of traditional Islamic law.[3] In the opinion of Hassan Al-Turabi of Sudan in his work The Islamic State [4], he argues that the Ulama does not necessarily be limited for those versed in religious affairs, but those who are also experts in fields such as in engineering, science, politics, education and more. He argues this because, according to him, all knowledge is divine and God-given.
