Prayer Lessons Spark Misinformation in Moroccan Schools

Minister's Words Twisted Online

Moroccan Minister of Education Mohamed Saad Berrada's recent comments on promoting Islamic values in schools have been taken out of context, leading to online confusion. Some X users misconstrued the minister's remarks, claiming that praying would be mandatory in schools.

Berrada Clarifies: No Enforcement Planned

However, Minister Berrada's actual response clarifies that the ministry intends to include teaching the five daily prayers as part of religious education. He explicitly stated that there would be no enforcement of prayer practices in schools.
