Why do muslim children go to Church of England Schools?

Answer 1

I'm a Muslim and as a child I went to quite a religious christian school but not a church of England one. The vast majority of religious schools will accept children from other faiths; my cousin goes to an Islamic school and there are quite a few children who go there as well. In my opinion I think its a great thing that children from alternative faiths study at a school where the main faith isn't there own, where the child will become more 'well rounded.' My parents sent me to my school because the standard of education there was excellent and I can tell you that I thoroughly enjoyed going there. I also believe I have become the well rounded individual that I have become because of studying there. Such schools also take manners and discipline very seriously.

Answer 2

First of all why not. If we live in a truly multicultural society then it should not matter if a Muslim attends a C of E School. Islamic Schools exist but are few and far between. I fail to see what difference it makes to anyone what sort of School Muslims attend.And I feel that before the Muslim faith became an issue in the World you may not have even thought of the question. Why does every element of Islam suddenly become a hotbed of discussion? And seems to me to be under such scrutiny because the rest of the World does not want to address the very real and damaging elements of their own culture/ Religion. I think its a case of lets shine a spotlight on someone else because we don't want to be illuminated for our own very real transgressions

Answer 3

Muslims believe in Jesus too. Not that he was the direct son of god, but that he too was a prophet, like Muhammad, just that Muhammad was the last prophet.

THey go there because they want their children around God loving people.

This further emphasizes my point that Muslims are not against Christians, they are against unbelievers, atheists and agnostics.

Answer 4

nicely this is for sure no longer as a results of fact their relationship is "in discord" with church teachings as a results of fact i'm a hundred% advantageous they does no longer refuse to confess their youngster if the father and mom pronounced that they worked each and each weekend and as a result never spoke of the sabbath. So this is no longer approximately being in discord with church teachings, only particular teachings (the bigoted ones)

Answer 5

I know many protestant children who attend roman catholic schools. It all depends on what the parent wants for their children. If they are willing to adhere to the religious implications of the school they wish their children to attend I don't see the problem with it.

Answer 6

Because they have no offence against Christianity which is admitted by Islam.They want their children to know all religions and not necessarily adopt or convert their own religion.Further they want them to be acquainted with modern sciences such as methematic,physics,chemistry etc....Is it bad to to so?????

Answer 7

some muslim parents don't want their children to be brainwashed 24/7
