Islamic schools are growing exponentially in the West to meet the demands of Muslim learners and their parents. Today, there are hundreds of Islamic schools that are constantly expanding. A key focus of the philosophy of Islamic schools and education is the nurturing of the mind, body and soul. Yet, to date, there is no book that addresses the issue of well-being in Islamic schools. This book provides a comprehensive approach to well-being and highlights both academic and practitioners’ findings, thoughts and experiences as well as school/classroom-based examples related to well-being in Islamic schooling.
