Understanding Islam
Abdal
Hakim Murad
Packaged set of 8 DVDs
|
|
As part of the
Dar al Islam Teachers' Institute in New Mexico, an annual retreat
for non-Muslims, these lectures provide a comprehensive overview
of Islam and the Muslim world and are ideal for introducing the
topic. The classroom-style presentation covers five main areas
of interest: the basic practices, shari'ah (Islamic law), interfaith
relations, spirituality and Muslim contributions to modern civilization.
Abdal Hakim Murad, a British convert fluent in Arabic, presents
the material from a highly intellectual perspective. His style
is unique to most of his other lectures since he is speaking
to non-Muslim academics. His deeper exploration and explanation
of Islam results in a series of lectures which any non-Muslim,
new Muslim or life-long Muslim can appreciate and benefit from.
This series is essential for any person or organization seeking
to educate others about the true teachings of Islam. Some of
the topics discussed: why Islam seeks to govern all aspects of
life, tradition vs. modernity, the Qur'anic view of Jews, historical
Muslim tolerance of Jews, the Qur'anic view of Christianity and
Jesus, free will vs. determinism, the problem of evil, music
as a spiritual healing, and Arab Muslims as a great maritime
nation. Since these lectures were given to a non-Muslim audience,
the speaker's use of references may not be as extensive as one
may expect. (Duration: 10 hours, 40 min) |
