Can academic, professional and religious qualifications be ranked on one scale?

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.
