    I see your point but what if a Christian student would refuse to go to school on Sunday because of church? Would they even dare to ask for it?

      I know of a rugby player who refuses to play on Sunday because it conflicts with his religious belief. and while it will not sound plausible that I can’t remember his name, I swear I am not making it up.

      But I think there is room for give and take – Muslim students and kids aren’t refusing to go to school. They are just being excused for prayers. So demanding to be let out of school all day would be overkill, don’t you think?
