A Muslim School teacher named Sarika Rana who teaches mathematics at the Orchids The International School in BTM Layout in Bangalore has caused controversy when she reportedly told her Hindu pupils to pray to Allah in order to understand the math equation.
Chiru Bhat, a journalist from Karnataka had shared a video in which a small girl narrates how her teacher named Sarika Rana forced them to pray to Allah with hands shaped like a bowl and wipe their face for them to understand the math problem. The teacher was apparently teaching a lesson on ‘Money’.
“Everybody was confused and getting in tests all wrong answers. The next day ma’am made us pray (to) Allah. She made us keep our hands like a bowl and wipe our face with it. Me and few of my classmates were Hindu and kept telling ma’am that we were Hindus and we didn’t want to pray to Allah. But ma’am told that we should pray to Allah and Allah is a better God.”, the girl narrates.
The teacher whose job is to explain the math problem did not help the students and instead told everyone in the classroom to pray to Allah. Despite the Hindu students saying that they do not want to pray to Allah, the teacher has forced them to do so and by scolding them and going on to say that Allah is a better god.
Education Jihad?
