The Equilibrium in Islamic Education in the US
International Institute for the Study of Islam in the Modern
World, ISIM Newsletter 5 (June, 2000)
Abstract
American Muslims do face misconceptions, yet
their view of the woman as morally dependent, hence socially and politically non-central
to issues of Islamic and multicultural education is indeed problematic. How is
it plausible for a morally dependent individual to instill the character of an
autonomous spiritual and intellectual Muslim who can integrate effectively in
a "pluralistic" society? A change in the paradigm of moral or religious
education beyond multiculturalism may be the solution.
