Rutt ke hafiz to bohat hain. Since this myth is rampant in our parts that anyone who becomes a hafiz he and his entire family are automatically granted Jannah. So specially in the rural areas, the least competent and useless child is sent off to a madrassa to become a hafiz, the entire family hoping for an automatic ticket in.
And then these same slow, incompetent and useless people become moulvis, so what can you expect.
Have you ever heard anyone sending their most bright and capable child off to a madrassa to become a hafiz? For that child its always the best "dunyavi" schools and universities.
