Nahed Selim, feminist, author and Muslim, calls to abolish the Muslim education system since it's predominated by radical Islam. Selim (54) worries about orthodox radicalism in education in Islamic schools. Therefore she wants to stop government subsidies of private schools in general. "The Muslim schools won't come back, the Christian ones will." Most of the 45 Islamic elementary schools and the two association for advanced Islamic education in Amsterdam and Rotterdam are characterized by administrative ignorance and financial chaos. State Secretary of Education Sharon Dijksma had a study done and depending on the outcome will close schools which do not fulfill the legal requirements.
Nahed Selim thinks it's not enough. "By far in most Islamic schools radical Islam has deeply penetrated into the contents of the instruction. A book like 'the way of the Muslim' (De Weg van de Moslim), which was widely condemned by the politicians in 2004 and should be removed from the mosque, belongs to the standard package of textbooks."
'De weg van de moslim' (which argues for the killing of homos, infidels and obstinate women) made the news after AIVD reports about the Tawheed mosque in Amsterdam. According to Selim the books are still being used in a great number of mosques and the Islamic College of Amsterdam.
