This chapter discusses religious education among Muslims in Finland with some universalizable perspectives and insights for Islam, education, and Muslim diversity. It starts with a presentation of religious socialization and education, including a migrant generation perspective. Then it presents a brief history of the Finnish Muslim population and takes a closer look at Muslim generations based on demographic data. This is followed by an overview of religion in the Finnish national educational system. Then the organization and execution of Islamic education in Finland are discussed, with special emphasis on the diversity of the Muslim population and migrant generations. Finally, the conclusion examines the complex interplay of Islamic education and growing up as a Muslim child in Finland, highlighting the embeddedness of Finnish Islam in migration and transnational contexts.
