Would Muslems living in the west.?

Question

Prefer to send your children to public schools or an Islamic school. And why?

Doesn't integration and awareness of others first hand count

Answer 1

Yeh i would never allow my kids to go to school in this country unless its an Islamic school, insha'allah i would move to an islamic country before i get to that point. The main reason is simply because i don't want them to be exposed to the behaviour of western kids. The way kids are raised in the west is totally different and kids look to their peers for guidance often, i don't want them to take a non muslim child as an example or an influence. It may sound extreme but i grew up here and i see the kind of behaviour that is becoming endemic in youth culture. I want my kids to be pure of the ideas of the west

Answer 2

To an Islamic school. In Islamic schools kids will learn to respect them selves and others. for example, they will be taught to cover their body, so others will think of you as a human being not a sex object. Another example, is to stay away from alcohol, drugs and gambling which makes people violent and make them fight over stupid things. Islamic schools teach people all the high school subjects which is very important, but on top of that Islamic schools teach, dignity, love, careness, self defence, kindness, forgiveness and most importantly fairness. I wouldn't want my kids to have "if some one slaps you on your right cheek, show him your left so he can slap you again" attitude, i would like them to have "an eye for an eye" attitude, which sounds fair enough to me.

Answer 3

I was raised a Catholic and I went to a Roman Catholic School that accepted Muslims as well. The Muslim parents didn't rely on the school for an Islamic religious education because it could be done elswhere.

It seemed to work fine. I think the standard of overall education and the atmosphere of tjhe school was more important to them.

Answer 4

Ah, sorry, can't contribute much to this. A buddy of mine who married a muslim, had to convert etc, has two kids but they're not at school age yet. Will ask him next time I see him. Think I know the answer.

But when I used to hang about with seriously annoying Christians (they let me hang with them cos I was one as well), everyone would say they would prefer their kids in a Christian school except for one thing: the chance that their kids could evangelise the others.

Answer 5

In Islamic Schools kids are taught Knowledge not designed information.

At the moral level, Islam teaches us to be truthful, honest, just, compassionate, virtuous; to shun all evils; to be ever bent on doing good deeds while sparing others of any harm or injury. Stated differently, it teaches us to think right, speak right, and act righteously.

At the spiritual level, Islam teaches cultivation of mindfulness of God—being grateful to Him, patient in adversity, and content with His decree and ever willing to make our will conform to His will.

In the West news has been superseded by propaganda, and education by brain-washing and indoctrination. From the advertising used to sell poor quality goods, to the classes in schools designed to make children into conditioned robots of the State, the art of persuasion has displaced the simple virtue of truth.

Answer 6

Muslims, would prefer to send their children to Islamic schools. (because they love them)
Then again they would, in an ideal world, prefer to live in a true Islamic country but they cant because the freemasons have destroyed them all.

Answer 7
