Abstract:
Islamic education appears to be fading away in the Nigerian education system, despite the increase in the formation of Muslim organisations across the nation. It is in light of this, this study investigated the role of Muslim organisations in the development of Islamic education as expressed by secondary school Islamic studies teachers in Ilorin West Local Government Area, Kwara State. The study examined their role in the area of finance, teacher capacity building, organization of Islamic programmes, provision of educational facilities and participation in the school curriculum development.
The descriptive survey design was adopted for the study. Convenient and stratified sampling techniques were employed to select 120 teachers across secondary schools in Ilorin West LGA. The instrument used for data collection was a self-designed questionnaire on “Role of Muslim Organisation in Development of Islamic Education”. The instrument has a test re-test reliability coefficient of 0.62. Respondents’ demographic data were presented with percentages, while Chi-square (χ²) statistics were used to test the null hypotheses at 0.05 alpha level.
The findings of the study revealed that the Muslim organisations are playing a great role in the development of Islamic education in Ilorin West Local Government Area, Kwara State in terms of finance, provision of educational facilities and organization of Islamic programmes. However, little has been done in the angle of curriculum development and Islamic subject teachers’ capacity building.
Based on the findings of the study, it was concluded that there exists a significant influence on the roles of Muslim organisations in the development of Islamic Education in Ilorin West Local Government in the aspect of finance teachers’ capacity building, organisation of Islamic Programmes and Educational Facilities. It was recommended that Muslim organisations should help in setting the minimum standard required to be qualified as Islamic education teachers so that they can impact positively in students, and solicit for the inclusion of Islamic education in the Nigeria Educational Policy as part of the prerequisite subjects for the Muslim students so that they can understand their religion better; thus, improving the values of Islamic education in Nigeria.
