A Response to Those Demanding Changes to the School Curricula
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a question from the internet. It says: In dealing with these phenomena in our countries, a voice has been raised demanding a change in the curricula, claiming that they produce terrorism. What is your response to these people?
Answer:
This is like what we mentioned in the previous answer, where we said that there are two groups of those who claim to be Muslims who cooperate with the disbelievers. The first group are those who kill Muslims, betray them, and terrorize them; these people are aiding the disbelievers in fighting the Muslims. The second group is the one that wants to change Islam.
They want to change the beliefs of the Muslims and remove the religious courses on creed, as well as those on jurisprudence, hadith, and tafsir. They want to remove these courses and replace them with courses that do not bring peace and do not satisfy hunger. They classify Islamic culture only as praise of Islam and fabrication about Islam. As for explaining the rulings of Islam and clarifying what Islam is, they do not want that.
They want Islamic culture to be merely praise and eulogy of Islam, and they interpret Islam according to their own opinion, as they wish, not as Allah and His Messenger wished. Our courses interpret Islam as Allah and His Messenger wished. These people want to interpret Islam as they wish, and therefore they said, "Change the curricula," because they conflict with their ideology. Yes.
