The present study aimed to investigate therelationship between religious education imparted to the students of deeni madrassasand persistence of poverty. A sample of 125 students and 40 teachers of the fivemadrassas were selected through a simple random sampling. All the respondents ofboth categories were interviewed by using a predesigned interview schedule. Thedata later on presented in the quantitative form.
