In this June 28, 2010 photograph, Pakistani religious student Muhammed Avez, 17, sits on a matress in the dormitory of his Islamic seminary in Rawalpindi. According to government records, there are at least 15,148 madrasas in Pakistan with more than two million students -- around five percent of the 34 million children in formal education. But officials suspect thousands more go unregistered, providing sons of Pakistan's poverty-stricken majority the only affordable education. The majority get their funds from local Muslim businessmen and traders, who believe donations to mosques and seminaries are a fast-ticket to paradise, along with Islamic foundations, charities and Pakistanis living abroad.
