KORANIC SCHOOL
In the villages, the Koranic school is held in the central public square, where night fires are lit. The children gather around a marabout in the evening and early morning to copy the day's Koranic verses onto their wooden tablet(lôh), which they recite together until they learn them by heart. If they make a mistake, they are hit or whipped by the master. Every day, the lôh is washed with water and prepared for the next lesson. Children must memorize the 114 suras of the Koran before being circumcised or excised.
