Draft:Child abuse in madrasa

Child abuse in elementary Quranic school, known in some regions as madrassas or Quanric, is a concerning issue that has been reported in various regions. Several cases of child sexual abuse and physical abuse have been documented of children attending madrassas. Activists and organisations have worked to expose cases of child abuse and call for action against the perpetrators.[1][2] The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) has engaged religious and traditional leaders, as well as government and civil society, in efforts to protect children from various forms of abuse, including child marriage, violent corporal punishment, domestic abuse, and child labour.[3]
