Transformation of Religious Education System in Postcolonial Morocco

This article examines the changes in the Islamic education system in the Kingdom of Morocco during the period of independent development. The primary objective of the study is to explore the unique Moroccan experience of integrating two distinct educational systems: Islamic and secular. The Moroccan practice may serve as a valuable example in light of the pressing issues of countering Islamist radicalism and extremism. The paper discusses the historical context, the reasons for governmental and societal attention to this topic, and the key stages in the transformation of the religious education system. An analysis of the prospects for Islamic education in contemporary Moroccan society is also provided. The research draws on official documents from the Moroccan Ministry of Education, national legislation, and royal speeches addressing this issue. It is demonstrated that throughout the second half of the 20th century and into the early decades of the 21st century, Moroccan authorities viewed the Islamic education system as a primary tool for influencing the political sphere, a key institution for shaping national culture, and a means to strengthen loyalty to the state. It is asserted that reforms in the Islamic education system in Morocco have enabled it to become more modern and relevant while simultaneously preserving the cultural traditions and uniqueness of the country.

РЕЛИГИОЗНАЯ ПОЛИТИКА ШАХОВ СЕФЕВИДСКОЙ ДИНАСТИИ (1501–1722)

The article is devoted to the study of the religious policy of the representatives of the Safavid dynasty, who solved the historical task of spreading and affirming Shi’ism of the Isna’asharite persuasion on the territory of Iran. The paper identifies the reasons why Ismail I chose this particular direction of the Shiite movement, declaring it the state religion of his country. The ways in which the Safavid shahs managed to turn an initially Sunni country into a state with a predominant Shiite population are shown. It is concluded that the most effective measures for the spread of Islamism were government measures aimed at attracting reputable Shiite scholars to the country and sponsoring their activities, organizing the state apparatus, with the inclusion of officials who provided communication between the government and the Shiite clergy, the establishment of a network of madrasahs and the organization of a religious education system. Attention is focused on the activities of the shahs to develop pilgrimage centers associated with Isna’asharite imams. The analysis of historical events allowed the author to trace the evolution of the relationship between the Shiite clergy and state power in the Safavid era. The failure of Nadir Shah’s religious policy aimed at merging the Sunni and Shiite branches of Islam is considered as confirmation of the conclusion that thanks to the efforts of the Safavid Shahs, a national Iranian identity was formed, inextricably linked with Isna’ashari Shiism.

Exploring the Implementation of the Religious Education System in Vocational High Schools: Strategies and Outcomes

This study evaluates the enactment of the Minister of Religion Regulation Number 16 of 2010, focusing on the management of religious education in schools, specifically at SMK Yadika Baturaja.

The findings reveal compliance with the Regulation, notably article 4, paragraphs (3) and (4), which mandate religious education based on the number of students sharing the same faith. According to these paragraphs, a minimum of 15 students sharing a religion necessitates the provision of religious education at the school, whereas fewer than 15 require collaboration with nearby schools or religious institutions. The study identifies significant obstacles, including the lack of a dedicated Religious Education Laboratory and adequate worship facilities for non-Muslim faiths. Although the implementation of religious education aligns with regulatory requirements, enhancing facilities is essential to better serve each religious community.
