Abstract
The sudden lockdown has brought an educational crisis among educational institutions. This study has highlighted the issues, challenges, and opportunities the Madrasa students have faced during that time, and how such challenges became opportunities for many. A comprehensive literature was reviewed and primary data was collected, through an open-ended online questionnaire in Google form, which was sent to the students through email and Whats App to get detailed information, for this, a purposive sampling was used, an option was given to write in Hindustani (Indian Language), in the Google form, later the language was transcribed into English and thematic analysis was done to get the result. This study finds that technical barriers, limited access to devices, and inadequate training for teachers create substantial problems, but enhanced accessibility and flexible learning environments provide an opportunity for the integration of online education in Madrasas.
