Nyckelord: Islam: A monotheistic religion characterized by the doctrine of absolute submission to God and reverence for Muhammad as God s chief and last prophet. Islamism: A movement advocating the social and political establishment of Islamic fundamentalism. Quran: The sacred text of Islam; divided into 114 chapters; or suras: revered as the word of God; dictated to Muhammad by the archangel Gabriel and accepted as the foundation of Islamic law; religion; culture; and politics. Secularism: Free from preconceived notions and critical influences and allows one to see oneself as equal to another. It is in this context as indifference to or rejection or exclusion of religion and religious considerations. Religion: A unified system of beliefs and practices relative to sacred things. Or a set of beliefs concerning the cause; nature; and purpose of the universe; especially when considered as the creation of a superhuman agency or agencies; usually involving devotional and ritual observances; and often containing a moral code governing the conduct of human affairs.;

Sammanfattning: Abstract: The thesis shows that there are no religious barriers in Sweden. It is entirely possible to teach religion in a secular way. Through this limited range of research, it is clear that the non-confessional and neutral Swedish curriculum is an open field for non-believers, believers, atheists, and all peoples to practice knowledge, where opinions about different religions and life have equal status. The same classroom may contain students with different religious and non-religious worldviews and different experiences of religious practice. Therefore, secularism and the relationship with secularism will complement each other in all areas of the Swedish education system and provide the environment and opportunity to progress towards the desired goals. Islam is not antithetical to secular ideals but complementary to deeper pursuits. Swedish secularism can be a role model for the world, and Swedish secularism is deeply embedded in the hearts of the people of that country as a kind of religious status.
