Algeria to Reorganize Quran Schools


Noureddin Mohammadi, the director of the ministry’s Quranic education department, said an office will be established for that purpose, al-Nahar newspaper reported.

He said the office will regulate public and private Quranic schools in the North African country.

The move will come due to the inefficiency of a law passed in 1994 for overseeing educational activities, he noted.

Mohammadi added that the committee will include Quran experts, teachers, researchers and university scholars as well as representatives from the country’s traditional Quran teachings centers, known as Zawayas.

It will also regulate Quranic activities in mosques and Quranic centers, he went on to say.

Algeria is a country in North Africa on the Mediterranean coast.

Muslims make up about ninety-nine percent of the Arab country’s population.
