RABAT - Naminata Koulibaly, 30, receives training in a Moroccan Muslim teaching institute, founded by King Mohammed VI in 2015, and hopes to return to her home in Ivory Coast better equipped to advise women on religious issues.
Morocco, which is nearly 100 percent Muslim, has marketed itself as an oasis of religious tolerance in a region torn by militancy - and has offered training to imams and male and female preachers of Islam from Africa and Europe on what it describes as moderate Islam. “We will show them how to behave with others and not to be extremists. We will show them how to be moderate in religion”.
The curriculum covers Islamic studies along with philosophy, history of religions, sexual education and mental health. Imam training can help sub-Saharan countries facing militancy and a vacuum in the supervision of religion, Salim Hmimnat of the Rabat-based African Studies Institute said.Students also come from France, such as 25-year-old Aboubakr Hmaidouch.
