Ragging is part and parcel of the university experience which involves mild coercion; forcing fresher to sing out loud and on a more serious level involves assault, criminal intimidation and in some instances dehumanized sexual abuse and sometimes murder.
As a result many students choose never to go back to university taking their chances, instead, in the work force or doing a private course or end up spending vast sums of money to go abroad.
There are no exceptions among our muslim university students with regarding these brutal ragging experience at the hands of their muslim seniors.
In this note I would like to introduce a muslim lady who involved a pioneering work on Ragging orientation process to build up religious reconstruction among muslim fresher.
I met that sixty year old graduated lady by accident in my career. And also I got a chance to discuss with her about university experiences at her period. She proudly displayed one of her achievements following way.
“While I was a second year student, I was appointed to rag against a muslim junior girl who was casually dressed in non muslim style. Personally I didn’t prefer to compel her to our culturally accepted dress code. But I liked to emphasize her mistake in a different way. For that I gave a piece of paper and a pen and ordered her to write what I said on that paper.
These are the words that I expelled during that time,

Assalamualaikum
My dear mom,
I have your blessings. I am quite well and hope you too would be fine. I am very happy to write this letter for giving wonderful message to you and our family regarding my first week university experience.
Nowadays I am inspiring the truth of Quranic life with the help of my senior muslim colleagues. I proud to say Islam is a complete way of life; each and every aspect is designed by our Creator to advance happy, healthy communities.
And also Islam holds women in very high esteem and the Islamic rules of covering are intended to protect and guard her dignity and honor. So as a first step I decided to change to a Quran-quoting dress code.
According to my knowledge Quran-quoting dress code should be fulfilled following criteria,
1. The hijab (covering) must conceal the entire body except the face and the hands.
2. It should not be translucent or tight. Tight clothes, even if they conceal the color of the skin, still describe the size and shape of the body or part of it, and create vivid images.
3. It should not attract the attention of the opposite gender; thus it should not be extravagant or excessively opulent. Nor should jewelry and makeup be on display.
4. It should not be a garment worn because of vanity or to gain popularity or fame. The female companions were known to wear black and other dark colors but other colors are permissible; a woman must not however wear colorful clothes because of vanity.
5. It should not be perfumed. This prohibition applies to both the body and the clothes.
6. It should not resemble the clothing worn by men.
7. It should not resemble the clothing that is specific to the non-Muslims
So I am waiting for these like dresses from you as soon as possible for the sake of allah.
Please convey my best compliments to father and sisters
Yours affectionately,
Daughter

After writing this letter using her own hand writing, I also gave an envelope to write her home address and I put it to post box.
Masha allah I am happy to say that I got news from that girl within a week of this incidence that her father brought a lot of dresses for her which is acceptable for our religious practices.”
So my dear sisters and brothers,Don’t you think you are the responsible person to utilize the brutal ragging orientation process into purposeful manner to establish our religious practices among our muslim academic society.
