"America will never tap into educational innovation and ingenuity without looking at the model that we have in our Madrassas, in our schools where innovation is encouraged. Where the foundation is the Koran," Rep. Andre Carson (D-Indiana) said at the ICNA-MAS convention at the end of May.

This guy's still in office. One can say the seventh district in Indiana is gerrymandered by default, being the tiniest and centered on Indianapolis.

A former headteacher who urged pupils to “recite the Koran” and “wear hijabs outside of school” has been appointed as the chairman of Ofsted.

Sir Hamid Patel will take up the interim role while a successor for Dame Christine Ryan is found.

This is believed to be the first time a religious school leader has been appointed to the role.

Patel is the chief executive of Star Academies Trust, which runs around 40 primary and secondary schools including Islamic schools, grammar schools and one Christian school.

In addition, the school became one of the first in the UK to advise students to wear a hijab outside the classroom.

The institution also came under fire for allowing a visit from Sheikh Abdul Rahman al-Sudais, a Saudi Arabian cleric who had called Jewish people “pigs”, praying for God to “terminate” them.
