There was an article in the Guardian today where it was mentioned that the government is looking into ways of providing interest free student loans to those Muslim students who wish to untilise the service.

They wouldn't be any cheaper, but they would get past the issue of forcing people to choose between getting educated and paying interest.

The surprising bit to me was the Muslim students mentioned in there who did not want such an option to exist for others to use.

Now knowing that there are members of this very site who had to think long and hard about going to university due to issues with interest (and in some cases where potentially brilliant students have chosen not to attend), while most people will choose to still attend university, the issue still exists and some people will not go to university for the simple reason that they want to avoid as much contact with interest as possible.

So why are there Muslims so white washed that they do not want such an option to exist?
