Answer

Direct answer

Professional and religious credentials follow different systems, purposes, and forms of recognition from the formal progression between school, bachelor’s, master’s, and doctorate levels. Assigning a Mufti, Alim, Qari, or Professional Degree a universal position above or below a bachelor’s degree would introduce a judgment the data does not contain. The report therefore counts their inclusion but excludes them from below/same/above calculations, preserving the taxonomy without inventing false equivalence or status.
