‘Exploring The Quran’ Program Planned in Connecticut Town
It will be led by Aida Mansoor, a past president of the Muslim Coalition of Connecticut.
She holds a Masters in Community Health and is working on a master’s degree in Islamic Studies and Christian Muslim Relations at Hartford Seminary. In 2013 she was awarded the Public Service Award from the Permanent Commission on the Status of Women.
Participants in the program will gain a greater understanding of the Islamic tradition. They will receive a general introduction to Islam, a short history of the Quran, language used in this text, insights into how Muslims refer to the sacred document in their daily lives, plus themes, approaches, and interpretations of the Quran.
Wisdom House presents programs in spirituality, education and the arts, and offers hospitality for organizations whose mission is consistent with that of Wisdom House. The mission of Wisdom House is rooted in the Judeo-Christian Wisdom tradition which supports the center’s commitment to sustainability and concern for contemporary issues.
