"Then in 1193 AD, came a marauding army of Turks under Bakthiyar Khilji. The savages ransacked and looted Nalanda. Thousands of monks were burnt alive and thousands more were beheaded. The great Library was put on fire and its massive collection of books and manuscripts continued to burn for three months. The university went into oblivion, only to appear again with its rediscovery in the 19th century."

A gurukul is a traditional school in India with students (shishya) living near their guru, often in the same dwelling, as a sort of family. Before British rule, the gurukuls were South Asia's main form of education. This type of education is sacred in Hinduism as well as in other religious traditions such as Jainism, Sikhism and Buddhism.

Quranic Verses:
https://quran.com/3:110
You are the best nation produced [as an example] for mankind. You enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong and believe in Allāh. If only the People of the Scripture had believed, it would have been better for them. Among them are believers, but most of them are defiantly disobedient.

https://quran.com/en/al-araf/157
“˹They are˺ the ones who follow the Messenger, the unlettered Prophet, whose description they find in their Torah and the Gospel.1 He commands them to do good and forbids them from evil, permits for them what is lawful and forbids to them what is impure, and relieves them from their burdens and the shackles that bound them. ˹Only˺ those who believe in him, honour and support him, and follow the light sent down to him will be successful.”

https://quran.com/en/al-araf/158
Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “O humanity! I am Allah’s Messenger to you all. To Him ˹alone˺ belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth. There is no god ˹worthy of worship˺ except Him. He gives life and causes death.” So believe in Allah and His Messenger, the unlettered Prophet, who believes in Allah and His revelations. And follow him, so you may be ˹rightly˺ guided.


The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "We are an illiterate nation; we neither write, nor know accounts.
The month is like this and this, i.e. sometimes of 29 days and sometimes of thirty days."
