Abstract

Concept of Amajiri School -The word Amajiri was derived from Arabic “Almuhajiri” meaning an emigrant. It usually refers to a person who migrates from luxury of his home to other place or to a popular teacher in the quest for Islamic knowledge. It is hinged on the Islamic concept of migration which is widely practiced especially when acquisition of knowledge at home is either inconvenient or insufficient. During the pre-colonial era, the Almajiri education systems originally called the Tsangaya was established under the Kanem-Borno Empire, one of the oldest ruling empire in the world extending from the frontier of northern Libya. It was established as an organized and comprehensive system of education for learning Islamic principles, values, jurisprudence and theology. This depicts the replica of Islamic learning centers in many Muslim countries such as: Madrasah in Pakistan, Malaysia Egypt and Indonesia etc.
