This volume challenges current assumptions around what is known as Islamic education and examines issues around educational leadership based on Islamic principles to confront xenophobia and Islamophobia in educational systems, policies and practices. Arguing for a new term to enter the discourse - 'Islamic-based' educational leadership - chapters approach the issue through critical reflexivity and diverse perspectives, addressing issues such as the higher education of immigrant students around the globe and the rising tensions in Muslim and non-Muslim populations. Exploring topics ranging from the leverage of leadership to religious education, this text brings together a wide range of case studies, experiences and examinations to shed light to the different approaches of Islamic-based educational leadership, administration and management.
This book will support researchers, doctoral students and scholars involved with multicultural education, school leadership and management studies, and education policy and politics more widely to explore new theories and practices that pave the way for future educational systems to meet faith-based demand in the school choice era.
Reviews / Votes
Arar, Sawalhi, DeCuir and Amatullah have expertly gathered scholars from around the world to examine Islamic based educational leadership from multiple perspectives. In doing so, they've uncovered critical insights that transcend entrenched socio-cultural and political boundaries, showing readers that there is no 'typical' Islamic educational leader. This must-read book reveals the remarkable diversity within 'Islam-based educational leadership' and the extraordinary impact the world's fastest growing religion has on leading schools. It is not to be missed!- Associate Professor Melanie C. Brooks, Associate Dean of Postgraduate Studies, Edith Cowan University, Perth, Western Australia
A unique and timely collection of articles from across the globe, unveiling the essential tenets of Islamic-based educational leadership and administration while recognising the contextual variations and resulting practices. The four guiding elements can be a starting point for further developing a field of knowledge currently skewed towards Western conceptualisations.
- Saeeda Shah, University of Leicester (Retd.)
This co-edited volume introduces a novel concept, Islam-based educational leadership, as a way to conceptualize the current state of educational leadership practices pertinent to Muslims and Islam. Moreover, the authors ungird this type of leadership in community-informed religious knowledge and practices that decree social justice. This text is a unique and valuable contribution to the field.
