The Equilibrium in Islamic Education in the US

Other Titles

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.
