ABSTRACT
Sub-Continent is unique with regard to foreign intruders thoseare not only invaded subcontinent hailing from western border but also ruled over this rich subcontinent in terms of variety of people and cultures. They ruled over this area with full vigour and introduced series of administrative and educational changes. Mughal era is very pertinent in this regard. In fact, Mughal mostly indulged in the world of luxuries and romance to please and quench their desire of instinct. However, despite all these flaws and short comings, they paid heed to education and literary activities too. Mughal era started with arrival of Zaheer ud din Babar in 1526 A.D ended with Bahadur Shah Zafar following the tragedy of War of Independence 1857 A.D. They amply focused on expansions and constructions of buildings and monuments. In this article, we will discuss early lives, educational reforms and policies with regard to potent monarch such as Babar, Akbar and Auranzeb Alamgir in particular and others in general.

ABSTRACT:
The article was basically presented in a conference on the topic “Rights of Mustafa ﷺ and its Implications” held on 7-8 April 2014. The conference was organized by Dawah Academy, International Islamic University, Islamabad. This attempt of Dawah Academy provided a good opportunity to the sincere and sensible scholars of the country to think on the importance of the topic and its implementation in the education system of Pakistan. In this way Dawah Academy averted scholars thoughts and efforts towards the topic.
Considering its need and importance for the betterment of our education system, I revised the article with my other team members. The article highlights the need and importance of the teaching methodology of Prophet ﷺ and its implementation in the country. In addition, there is an analytical study of different text books published by different organizations and analysis of primary education in Pakistan. In the end there are some suggestion to revise the curriculum and educational policy in the light of the teachings of the Prophet ﷺ so that our education system may present the clear picture of Pakistani and Islamic society.
