Now in this age of techonology all these beliefs and cultural values, idelogies of life are transferred to the younger generation i.e. children through media which is solely dependent on Information Technology. We can say that the role of family members including parents and relatives have been significantly decreased that is why islamic education should be provided by means of Information Technology. Education is necessary for all Muslims and in Pakistan as well as in the Muslim world education has been divided into Islamic and Western Education. Our schooling system is very poor and old.
