Hello Everyone I Am @limon2006👳‍♀️ From #Bangladesh 🇧🇩

Hello friends, how are you all? I hope you are all well. I am also very well with your prayers and the grace of Allah. So today I am presenting you with a diary game for the whole day. The famous institution named Bogra Sadar is known as one of the largest and oldest Qaumi Madrasas in Bogra city.

Since its establishment in 1982, it has stood as one of the main religious education centers in North Bengal. Locally, it is better known as 'Karbala Madrasa'. The building of the madrasa is quite large and has several floors. It seems that there is a good arrangement for light and air circulation due to adequate balconies and open spaces. However, since it is inside the city and the number of students is high, the place can be a bit crowded

. Generally, there is a provision for studying here from the primary level to Dawra-e-Hadith (equivalent to Masters) according to the Qaumi curriculum. The students here have gained fame by participating in various national Hifz and Qirat competitions. This madrasa is deeply connected with the religious sentiments of the people of Bogra and the surrounding areas. Especially during the month of Ramadan or various gatherings, there is a large crowd here. Such large buildings and premises are not often seen inside the city.

Experienced and knowledgeable scholars teach here. Being in the heart of Bogra city (Nishindara), the transportation system is very good. Since the number of students in large institutions is high, it is necessary to be more disciplined in drying clothes and placing furniture in the dormitory or balcony (which can be seen in the picture). It is important for students to constantly pay attention to pure water and healthy sanitation systems.

The extraordinary work of Arabic calligraphy is being observed. Especially the logo-like calligraphy done in red is of very professional quality. The folds and arrangement of the letters show that the students are quite aware of the geometric knowledge and aesthetics of calligraphy.
The handwriting of both Bengali and Arabic is very neat and clean. Generally, this practice of handwriting is being lost a lot in the current era due to the dominance of digital printing. In such an environment, these handwritten articles and poems of the students show their patience and concentration.

Not only the writing on the wall, but also the small decorations (such as minarets, domes, flowers and pen sketches) that are consistent with the writing have further enhanced its value. The different designs of each column and title are attractive to the readers.
The title of the wall reads, "This is a multi-dimensional Arabic-Bangla wall." In addition to important religious topics like 'Khatme Nabuwat', 'Jihad fi Sabilillah', 'Siratul Mustaqim', the students' own thoughts and religious wisdom were reflected in it. Equal proficiency in both Arabic and Bengali was observed. The color combination and layout of the wall paintings are very excellent. Such practice plays a major role in developing the thinking power and artistic taste of the students.
