The answer

The young person is profoundly influenced by the school, and non-Islamic schools, especially missionary ones, suffer from flaws and deficiencies in their concepts of values and ethics. Colonizers used education to intellectually invade Muslims; they worked to destroy religious education, spread foreign schools, and combat the Arabic language. Missionary schools seek to change the values and concepts of their students, so a Muslim must be zealous for his religion and values and be aware of this danger.
