The Conflict in Our Minds and How to Remove It

Basira Education was conceived to solve a problem.

The problem is that religious curricula that are taught at home or in the mosque are disconnected from the curricula that we are taught in schools and colleges. This creates a worldview conflict between the religious commitments in our minds and souls and between the mainstream non-religious education that prepares us for life in modern culture.

This conflict lies in two areas: (1) in the physical sciences, which train students to analyze the universe through the lens of materialism, and (2) in the humanities, which acculturate them into a non-religious worldview that moralizes autonomy and suspects authority and tradition, particularly when it is religious.
