Barangay Buhanginan is in the municipality of Patikul in the province of Sulu. This community has a unique story shaped by its historical and geographical context. The village is situated in a remote place, and the challenging terrain has contributed to its isolation and limited access to resources and opportunities.
The municipality of Patikul is rich in cultural heritage and has a history of complex interactions between different groups. Militant organizations like the Abu Sayyaf, which periodically engage in combat with government forces, have caused Patikul to endure hardships, which resulted in a cycle of violence, relocation, and instability for the inhabitants in the neighbourhood. Despite these challenges, the community has shown resilience and a strong sense of identity. Locals have endured hardships and provided comfort to their neighbor to show solidarity.
A Madrasa in this community represents a safe physical place that is crucial to providing educational and emotional support to families affected by conflicts with the Abu Sayyaf Group and the Government. It offers a safe space for children to learn Islamic values, foster resilience, and promote community cohesion, helping them rebuild their lives after the turmoil they've experienced.
