Leaving Islam Parts ! & 2
from Common Threads: An Interfaith Dialogue · host Yasmine Mohammed
Some people just walk away from their faiths of birth with no hard feelings. They just...stop. No issues, no problems. But some religions or denominations do make it a challenge. And leaving can have significant challenges. In the past we've exposed the hard work that many who have left Jewish Hasidim communities have had to do as they attempt to reenter mainstream society. In these 2 episodes we speak with Yasmine Mohammed, the educator and author who currently lives in Canada. She challenges both conservative Muslims and those non-Muslims who are afraid to condemn the anti-liberal values of Wahabism in fear of being labeled Islamophobic. One of the most powerful stories told on Common Threads. Theme music "Nigal."
