'Zawaya' under security control
2007-06-23
Several Quran teaching schools known as “Zawaya” (religious brotherhoods), known to teach moderate Islam, called for launching security investigations on students’ files to preserve these “Zawaya” from extremist ideas and jihad tendencies that could be spread mostly by more than 18 years old students.

Sources well informed about the issue said that several Quran schools’ Imams in Bordj Bouareridj underscored “that investigations should make sure about financial sources of theses religious institutions”, as extremism could be spread through different ways among which imposing specific programmes with the help of money. The available information recalls that The Ministry of Religious Affairs would get rid of hundreds religious schools that are not matching contract clauses, as well as to the law to be issued soon.
