madrassas
Quranic teaching institutions
Madrassas are Islamic religious schools, ranging from small village institutions teaching Quran recitation to large academies offering advanced study in theology and Islamic law.
The word comes from Arabic for "place of study." In Western media, madrassa often carries connotations of extremism, though most are simply ordinary schools: He attended a madrassa as a boy.
