6 Reasons Every Muslim Should Learn Computer Programming by MuslimHowto: 8:42am On Jan 20, 2019 |
A lot of Muslims are active on Facebook, Instagram, Youtube, Google, Twitter, Snapchat, Whatsapp, and many more. Most do not know how this social media applications or websites are created talkless of how they generate billions of dollars yearly. It is clear that we are in the era of science and technology, Muslims should not be left out to participate in making the world a better place, through creating productive and extensive apps that will positively impact the lives of their fellow Muslims and non-Muslims. What is Computer Programming or coding? Computer Programming is a creative process of writing useful code for the computer to perform a meaningful, maintainable and extensive task. These codes are written in a computer language that runs through a compiler that enables the computer to understand for easy interpretation to produce meaningful output. There are various programming languages that are specialized in performing different tasks for a computer. Below are some of the most common computer languages: HTML & CSS JavaScript C++ Ruby Python C PHP SQL ASP .NET and many more. Why Muslims should learn programming or coding? Today, almost everything is run by computer. They’re made possible by use of computer programming to bring flexibility into our day to day activities. Imagine our life without a computer; it will be hard to communicate, receive and send information all around the globe by pressing just a button. Below are the key reasons why Muslims should learn computer programming or coding: DAWAH Dawah means inviting or preaching of Islam. There are various medium Muslim could use to spread the teaching of Islam through computer programming – particularly the social media platforms (such as facebook, twitter, Instagram). Spreading the teaching of Islam is quite easy and effective on social media just by creating engaging contents (posts or videos) online that reaches people from different demographics. These contents may be videos of notable scholar, Quranic verses, and sayings of The Prophet. You can make mobile (android) application, websites, and desktop programs. That will serve mainly for dawah (just like Muslim Pro, Muslim Central, Hadith app, zakat calculator, iQuran, e.t.c), where Muslims from diverse origin come together to seek for guidance and help themselves grow intact in faith and righteousness. Let there arise among you a group inviting to all that is good, enjoining righteousness and forbidding evil. Those are the successful ones. – (Quran 3 verse 110) According to the above verse, it means you’re creating a cycle of bringing Muslims together to learn about Islam, and doing this will earn you immense and uncountable rewards in this life and the hereafter (day of resurrection). WORK FROM ANYWHERE The interesting part of being a programmer is that you can work from anywhere (be it at home, coffee bar, restaurant, on the beach, and so on) or as a freelance by having just your laptop and internet connection - because almost everything you’ll need is computer base. It gives you the chance to create your zone and make you feel independent to do whatever you wish at your own convenient time. You’ll enjoy the free will to go to the masjid (mosque) to offer salaah at the prescribed time without any boss intimidating or questioning your religious belief. HIGH JOB OPPORTUNITY The need to fill a role of a computer programmer in organizations is increasing in developed, developing and underdeveloped countries. Their skills are needed in almost every sector, from financing, architecture, construction, manufacturing, health, e.t.c. To be a certified computer programmer you must have a BSc degree in computer science or any science related course such as Mathematics. Though, possessing an adequate experience in computer programming without a science degree or no degree can still land you a well-paid job base on your deep knowledge in the field. BUOYANT SALARY STRUCTURE According to payscale.com below is the annual salaries earn by computer programmers/software engineer/ developer by nationality: • U.S. $80,825 • Saudi Arabia – $25,585.92 • Indonesia – Rp 68,400,000 • Turkey - $72,921 Malaysia - $8,567.50 • India – $6,310.59 • Nigeria - $5,050 MAKE YOU A BILLIONAIRE Don’t be fooled by the “B” word. Not all programmers are billionaires. Acquiring the rightful knowledge (needed) in computer programming can make you a billionaire by implementing this knowledge into solving real human problems and ease communication, data flow, information and time efficiency. They’re a lot of people who have become billionaires in the field of computer programming. To mention few, Mark Zuckerberg, founder of Facebook is worth $80b, Bill Gates, founder of Microsoft is worth $90b. This is achievable in your case too if you put hard work and full dedication in presenting humanity with productive innovation that will shape their life positively.

You mean every Muslim in Nigeria right? Because most Muslims from other parts of the world are more advanced and educated than the ones we have in naija.... So encourage them to get more western education and basic skills to make our country better. 31 Likes 3 Shares |

asuustrike1: There is a difference between learning computer programming and being computer literate. Being a computer literate opens you to a variety of field on the computer. e.g. Graphic designing, type-setting, e.t.c. Does that mean anybody who doesn't know computer programming is a computer illiterate? asuustrike1 you're one of the top people I'm familiar with their comments on nairaland. 1 Like |

Op you have a very nice advise but why do you feel that your advise belongs to only muslims? Why look down on non muslims? See you people should seek God to know the truth and stop the deceit. Even christians, God is beyond religion. Religion is man made and not from God. Please correct your headline to include everybody. 14 Likes |
