Abstract

Pakistan, as an Islamic Republic, has adopted Islam as its state religion. Consequently, the Pakistani government continually undertakes various measures to promote Islamic education across the nation. One notable initiative is making Islamic Studies a compulsory subject in all schools up to the secondary level. This research aims to examine the Islamic Studies curriculum for grades 6-8 in both public and private schools in Danyore, a town in Gilgit. It provides a detailed analysis and critique of the textbooks used in these schools. The research explores the knowledge, attitudes, and societal impacts of the current Islamic Studies curriculum on students. To gain insights into the curriculum’s effectiveness and its influence, surveys were conducted among students, parents and teachers, and parents from various schools in the town. The objective is to assess the curriculum's effects on students' personal development and its broader social implications. Based on the findings, this paper proposes several key recommendations to enhance the curriculum. These recommendations aim to better incorporate Islamic values and ethics into students' lives, thereby making the curriculum more impactful and effective.
