PAKISTAN-RELIGION-ISLAM-MADRASA
Pakistani religious student Muhibbullah, 13, poses in the corridor of the dormitory at an Islamic seminary in Rawalpindi on June 29, 2010. According to government records, there are at least 15,148 seminaries in Pakistan with more than two million students -- around five percent of the 34 million children in formal education. But officials suspect thousands more go unregistered, providing sons of Pakistan's poverty-stricken majority the only affordable education. The majority get their funds from local Muslim businessmen and traders, who believe donations to mosques and madrasas are a fast-ticket to paradise, along with Islamic foundations, charities and Pakistanis living abroad.
