About 3000 students study IS curriculum in the State of Homs

 

SOHR received a copy of a footage shows IS members teaching children in its own- held areas in the eastern countryside of Homs.

 

An IS teacher appears explaining a lesson about kinds of monotheism and pillars of Iman (faith). Another teacher from al- Maghreb appears in the videotape saying “the educational system is getting better and better. The criminal was introducing blasphemous, nationalistic and atheistic curriculums for those children, but now in the grace of Allah they have become studying Feqeh and monotheism as well as they have learned their religion correctly.”

 

 “We have started the educational process in the beginning of Safar (the second month in the Islamic calendar), where we have establishes the Diwan (bureau) and its Shoura council. We have also started to open schools in the villages. These schools are houses prepared to serve as schools,” a teacher said.

 

The educational process started with one or two schools but now we have 9 schools, we also started with 300 students bu now we have more than 2700. We have 3 levels and never teach previous curriculums. We teach Quran, Aqida (It is a branch of Islamic studies describing the beliefs of the Islamic faith) and monotheism, Feqeh ( Islamic jurisprudence), Arabic language and mathematics. So, we are not, as the west claim, an ignorant nation but we are people of knowledge. But we just teach the true science which the Quran and the prophet encourage us to learn it,” the teacher continued.
