State Funded Muslim Schools

[naseeha]

Hmm Interesting,


Your post deals greatly with the social side of things. Do you see the need to have some reform of the curricula also.


I know that at least one saudi Sheikh (his name escapes me at the moment, but I think it is Sheikh Jibaly) who called suggested reform of the islamic curricula, and gave examples as well.


Obviously, schools that are state owned and are not "islamic" are fine.. but as for the Islamic schools;


do we need some sort of curricula that would integrate both islamic and secular knowledge and prepare it's students for the real world out there????


or is our current process working fine..


And by "Our" I mean the muslims today in general, I am not pinpointing any one school..


What are your thoughts??
