November 7-8, 2024, marked a shocking development at the New Jersey Education Association (NJEA) convention, as the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA), a New York-based Islamic group with documented ties to terrorism, was granted a prominent platform. Under the leadership of NJEA President Sean Spiller, a prominent Democrat currently running for Governor of New Jersey, ICNA was granted prime access to educators. From this position, they distributed free Qurans and “teacher guides” as part of their controversial dawah campaign, which has the stated goal of targeting 10 million non-Muslims for conversion, designed to indoctrinate public school educators into promoting Islam in classrooms under the pretense of inclusivity and cultural awareness.
With over 300 professional development seminars, workshops, and programs, the NJEA convention is the nation’s largest gathering of educators. Thousands of teachers attend every year to improve their craft and gain insights into the latest developments in education. But this year, instead of focusing on academic excellence, teachers encountered ICNA’s insidious agenda to normalize Sharia law, push false victimhood narratives, and pressure educators into turning classrooms into vehicles for Islamic indoctrination.
Free Qurans and Teacher Guides: ICNA’s Mission to Indoctrinate
At the heart of ICNA’s efforts were teacher guides explicitly rooted in Sharia; furthermore, ICNA educational materials are modeled after the curriculum taught at Al-Azhar University in Cairo, Egypt. While Al-Azhar is considered the most prestigious institution in Sunni Islam, it has also garnered infamy for encouraging extremism and terror, including teaching principles of unrelenting jihad, hostility toward non-Muslims, and subjugation of women. One professor at Al-Azhar even teaches that Muslims are allowed to rape non-Muslim women as permitted by Allah.
These teacher guides distributed by ICNA presented themselves as tools for inclusivity. Still, their true purpose was clear: to push Islamic law into the public school system under the guise of accommodating Muslim students. Specific elements of the guide include:
- Islamizing Schools: Teachers were instructed to give Muslim students designated prayer spaces and time, ensure halal food options, and adapt the school environment to align with Islamic practices.
- Enforcing Sharia on Female Students: The guide explicitly calls for educators to enforce modesty rules on Muslim girls, including wearing hijabs and ensuring they are never alone with boys or touched by the opposite gender. It demands that schools accommodate hijab-wearing students with long-sleeved gym uniforms, female-only swimming classes, private shower stalls, and even female sports partners for activities like karate.
- Sanitizing Islam’s History: The materials reframe Islamic history to omit its well-documented legacy of conquest, violence, and oppression, replacing it with a sanitized narrative that glorifies the religion while demonizing its critics.
- Pushing Religious Accommodations: Teachers are advised to avoid celebrating Christian holidays like Christmas and Easter in schools to avoid “alienating” Muslim students. Instead, the guide recommends neutral activities like winter-themed events, removing any explicit references to Christianity. Even holidays like Halloween are discouraged, with the guide citing “pagan origins.” […]
