The Islamic Mary
A podcast about Maryam in the Qur'an, Islamic tradition, and Christian-Muslim relations. It is a journey into my forthcoming book on the Islamic Mary and my interest in Biblical and Qur'anic figures and Islam and Interreligious Studies.
The Islamic Mary
Maryam and the Clash of Civilizations
I speak about a recent keynote address that I gave at the Pacific Northeast Virtual Exchange conference where I connect my research on the Islamic Mary or Maraym to COIL Virtual Exchange. Growing up in the 90s, there was a strong push for the "Clash of Civilizations" thesis, or that the "West" was in an intrinsic conflict with "Orient" and "Islam". It was "Islam versus the West" or the "West versus the Rest". Both my research and virtual exchange challenge this thesis and demonstrate that people from different regions of the world can learn from each other and mutually coexist.
