Challenges Facing Muslim Women in Ireland and the Role of Education in Providing Possible Solutions

Abstract

The way that the Muslim figure has been presented as a threat over the ages highlights how crucial it is to understand the intellectual background of the issue to completely comprehend the subtleties of Islamophobic thinking. The Muslim communities have been racialized as others. This study investigates the lived experiences of Muslim women in Ireland and contextualizes the current state of Islamophobia within the worldwide ideology of this moment. It focuses in particular on the difficulties that Muslim women confront in practicing their religion and integrating into larger non-Muslim Irish culture and the possibilities of providing solutions through education.
