Thesis (Ph.D.)--Columbia University, 2004.

This study examines one of the newest models of faith-based schooling in the United States. In the past fifteen years, approximately two hundred full-time private Muslim schools have been established across the country, catering to the educational and religious needs of an estimated 20,000 Muslim children. Although anthropologists have given a good deal of critical attention to the role played by public schools in shaping ethnic, racial and gender identities in the context of social inequality, faith-based private schools have, by contrast, been largely ignored. That such an omission is the rule rather than the exception is ironic since religious day schools---Catholic, Protestant and Jewish---preceded by many decades the first of the so-called "free schools" of the 1830s from which developed the modern public school system in the United States.

520 $a This study examines one of the newest models of faith-based schooling in the United States. In the past fifteen years, approximately two hundred full-time private Muslim schools have been established across the country, catering to the educational and religious needs of an estimated 20,000 Muslim children. Although anthropologists have given a good deal of critical attention to the role played by public schools in shaping ethnic, racial and gender identities in the context of social inequality, faith-based private schools have, by contrast, been largely ignored. That such an omission is the rule rather than the exception is ironic since religious day schools---Catholic, Protestant and Jewish---preceded by many decades the first of the so-called "free schools" of the 1830s from which developed the modern public school system in the United States.
520 $a This study therefore represents a modest effort towards redressing this gap in the anthropology of schooling in the United States. Based on participant-observation at Al Noor School, a private K--12 Muslim school in Brooklyn, New York, the study examines the rules and resources that structure the school's self-described "Islamic environment." Specifically, the study examines how actors at the school utilize language (Arabic as lingua sacra), symbolic knowledge (of the Qur'an and Sunnah), and religious norms ( halal vs. haram) in the production and reproduction of Muslim religiosity and community. The theoretical goal of the study is to contribute to the anthropological discourse on agency, religiosity and education as they relate to the dynamics of social reproduction in a plural society.
